Title: Changing user-names...?
Post by: high compression ii on April 01, 2013, 10:35:38 PM
How come--or rather why do some members here seem to change their user-names and confuse everyone??

He seems to be a man of many personalities, but you probably know that having had him as a fellow mod ;)
I think we should have a poll to find him a suitable name and then see if  we can lock it

If you go to profile, and then Modify Profile, then account settings, you can keep your username, but change the name that appears above your avatar, or lack thereof.

Perhaps we ought to advise that admin may, at a time of their choosing, lock user names.

So ensure you're happy with the name you use at any point in time!

That aside, a forum imposed name for RM would make things far less confusing.

Its possible to change user-names on VOD--But a mod has to do it, as far as I know....

quite an interesting piont, how much value does one put on seeing the name next to a reply or post, does it have an impact on how we interpret whats said, you could have a newbie with 10 times the knowledge of any one person here jion up, would the info be taken on board as much as a known name, well thats where this site stands aside from others we keep an open mind... i change name not identities, theres plenty more email addys out there, live long and prosper dudes...

latorz gatorz weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
