Username

how do i change my username?

This is hard baked into the system. If you want a new user name you will need to reregister.

If you want to re-register you must let admin know as technically you are not permitted to have more than one active account.

Does this make sense?

not really. if i am still the same user,it might be better to just be able to change it, rather than jumping through hoops. although if i changed it to realslow or something, no one would know my past persona. small matter,though.

Not sure that more explanation is needed but just in case. It is not within the functionality of the software to allow users to change their username. The username is the unique identifier that by definition identifies you.

This all feels a bit Descartes "I think therefore I am" but it is what it is.

It is a shame that the software has some obvious limitations.

I dislike my user name

I was thinking about changing or altering too but if you changed your username how would anyone know it was you??

btw your name sets you apart TLR

It's pretty funny when you speak Spanish though.

Its not the software but the database. All it take is one simple SQL Update command and bam, new username. Your username is still associated with a unique user ID number which can't change. Why they can't can't or won't let you change your username? Because then people would have a hard time associating people since their name would always change. If the username database was ever corrupted we'd all end up being numbers for names.

I sometimes get confused when people change their avatar to the same one somebody else already has but luckily the names never change.

It's the best username ever when you speak Spanish! Cries out for a far better avatar though.

What would Freud say about your username Timmy?

I am going to delete those last few posts.

It would be a great idea for all concerned if that point is not raised again

Pretty strange decision. Isn't that a bit totalitarian? What is so horrible about a certain person having an apparent preference for a little something something? It's not like any us were going to diss him/her about it. It was a humorous gem. But heck, now I feel like I'm part of an elite.

This subject will not be raised again! Sir, yes sir!

I thought it was pretty funny also.
ah well.

Think of the children!

Since it was all deleted and a mod told everyone not to discuss it, you don't really expect anyone to answer that question publicly, do you?

Thus are we condemned to repeat the mistakes of the past. Classic Catch 22.

I checked out of the CN forum some time back because I felt I was wasting too much time, AND I was not anonymous (sp?) enough. I came back with a new user name and am a better person for it. Did't know I was supposed to tell anyone that though. Hoo Noo?

I think I could tell you, being very vague, and just using terms such as "one poster said something was funny, another agreed" etc, certainatly not mentioning what or who was part of the discussion, but its just nor worth the attempt.

agree with boomcie though.
