Change Name on Here?

Post by Arbo »

Hi mods, I want to change my name on here from 'ghettoerasmus' to simply 'Arbo' , GE is a terrible name that makes people think I'm smarter than I am and some kind of philosopher(srs), + Arbo is also my Steam name and a name I'm trying to use on everything

Is it possible for us to change that?

On most websites, you cannot change the username. But you could just register afresh?

If you go to User Control Panel (under your ID top right), then click on the Profile tab, then Edit account settings, you can change your user name there. (At least I think you can -- I don't think that's a Mod function).

I must say I will miss 'ghettoerasmas'. It certainly had flair. I think it was the paradoxical combination of the terms. I hope that you may reconsider your decision. A really good screen name is hard to come by ;-)

Unfortunately that is not possible, at least for me. Could anyone help me with this?

Me to. Can you change mine to anything that doesn't have an underscore?

Unfortunately, I just realized "newbye" is a temporary status.. could you leave my username in "Family Father"?

You need special dispensation from the owner.

That's ok: over time, it will come.. or not...

Not a big change, anyway

:)

Thanks Jason!

I mean if that does not fit the rules, then no. I forgot about the rules.

Actually not really when I think about it.

It fits the rules, but the drive to self-depreciated sometimes strain ...

Far Enough.


How about:

"TheWanderingScholar"

Please change my name to LoriMeyers, as tribute to one of my first (fictional) female heroines. It wasn't until recently I realized there was a term for the reason she inspired me: financial independence.

Thank you.
