NO MORE NAME CHANGES

[Xianti]

Apparently, people seem to have the idea lately that changing names is the cool thing to do around here. Sorry, but this is getting ridiculous. I've set a precedent that I never should have.

I am no longer accepting requests for forum name changes unless someone's life or career is in jeopardy (in the case of one of the recent changes, it was career).

DO NOT ASK ME TO CHANGE YOUR FORUM NAME. YOU CHOSE YOUR NAME. DEAL WITH IT.

I'd like to change my name to Panda.

Just so people can go 'hey panda'

sorry, i think i may have started this whole thing

[Jack Sawyer]

I started it all, way back when


crap, I was planning to change it again to "the poster formerly known as Jack Sawyer"

[boost]

Id like to go with symbol, however not the word but the essense of the word. Ill leave how youll represent this with text up to you, but if you can not think of anything you may simply go with "the poster formally known as boost"

my thanks in advance.

And I think I changed my name from dwarfman1990 to dwarfman right after you.

oops, I guess I started this latest trend. I had an issue and X helped out on the QT. Thought doing it quietly would avoid the issue this time around. Sorry X

You could have slid quietly into the night...

[wufwugy]

i thought all the name changes were the names just evolving and the poster realizing the original was inferior. like nobody was like 'hey boostnslide' but was like 'hey boost' and nobody was like 'hey trainer jyms' but was like 'hey jyms'. i can understand if i wanted to change my name from wufwugy to 'sneezingcarrot' or something totally unrelated, but if everbody called me 'wuf' or something and i wanted to change it to that it makes sense.

i guess i dont see the sense in not letting something like bigspenda73 not change to spenda if he wanted because its the same name but better and easier and all the good things. now if he wanted to change to 'crackwhorejones' then just tell him to fuck himself.

[wufwugy]

imo the forum looks a lot better with names like dwarfman than dwarfman1990, but i happen to have a super keen artistic sense.

i mean is not 'wufwugy' the most beautiful looking, and even sounding, word????

wait wtf, youre not trainer jyms anymore? why would you change your name, but keep the avatar that says trainer jyms.

[WildBobAA]

This thread is my fault, I wanted my name changed to just bob

actually it reminds me of that guy wuggy from theres something about mary. hence, not artistic.

[Xianti]

I used to have the forum set up so anyone can change their own names whenever. But once we automated the Gauntlet point-keeping and leaderboard, this was not an option, as the forum names are matched with the Stars names. Historical data is ruined when forum names are changed and a name change mid-season completely invalidates that player's points and ranking.

That, and we had some issues with pranksters impersonating other forum members. But the main reason is for the Gauntlet automation.

I'm not just being a dick about it.

I had some reasons for the change and went to X quietly last week with my reasons. I remembered what happened last time when bode asked for a change as well as others. I was hoping to slip under the radar to avoid exactly what happened. Sometimes we need a change and not just because we are Gemini. I didn't want it to effect others chances when they feel they really need one, not just because "it's the thing to do". Keeping the avatar kept it on the down low I thought.

[spoonitnow]

I want my name changed to spoon. Consider it a spoonjob.

[swiggidy]

Keeping the avatar was just a necesity because it's so awesome

[mcatdog]

I don't know why you're mad about it. People saw that others' names were getting changed so we assumed it was OK to get our names changed for trivial reasons. I'm sure none of the people who asked for a change would mind a simple "No, it's kind of a hassle."

[wufwugy]

if i want my name changed i'll just threaten to leave if i dont get my way and X will be like 'noooooo i ruv you!'

[nutsinho]

i would like to change my name to 'Nut Seen Yo' so people know how to say it and when i meet them irl they dont give me a blank look when i tell them my online name

[tom]

my first user name like foreverrrrrr ago was lineof7s but I think it got deleted when all this fancy stuff came in. I took a long break inbetween that name and making this one. but still, maybe I was the original?!

edit: just went through 50 pages of names and found lineof7s is still there, and I was even worse at poker than I am now. made/quit ~Aug 2004, so not that long of a break, almost a year though. Can I get my join date changed to Aug 2004 to make me feel cooler?

[Xianti]

I don't know why you're mad about it.

Not really mad, Mike. But a bit annoyed, yes. Nothing personal.. and the tone of anger was somewhat in jest.

You're seeing my reaction without the complete picture. That is, you don't know about the other PM requests I've been getting. I'd rather make a single blanket announcement now than continue answering the PMs I'm getting (and would've been getting) one at a time.

[Lukie]

its alright X you're doing a great job keep it up

[Pythonic]

I want to change my name to Johnny Wad

[Xianti]

its alright X you're doing a great job keep it up

Thank you, O Great Lukie, kind sir.

[swiggidy]

X, for some reason your av reminds me of the South Park where Cartman becomes a cop and hits everyone in the knee with his club.

[will641]

Nope it's actually 'nuts in ho', as in a sexual reference. Just a quick fyi.

that's what I've been saying on the rail for the past month

[Halv]

Yea that's what me and rent agreed on in our sweat session the other day.

Also if your screenname is RANDYBOY or similar we will assume your a donkey. Especially if you tack some random numbers on to the end.

[dalecooper]

Could I get my name changed to dale cooper (with a space)? Or daleCooper? I'm just concerned that people think my name is Dalec Ooper, which is just stupid.

Barring that, could my name be changed to Triptanes Jr.?

[Galapogos]

Can I change mine to Guyapogos? Sometimes for short, people refer to me as "Gal". And I don't like that, sounds kinda fem or faggy, and that's not what I'm about.

[Halv]

I wanna change my name to lamevash.

[Halv]

because washing is lame

[dalecooper]

And I don't like that, sounds kinda fem or faggy, and that's not what I'm about.

We get it, man, we've been disturbed by your avatar every day.

[BennyLaRue]

Nope it's actually 'nuts in ho'

Never done that. Sounds nice. It would be warm and cozy, I'd bet.
