We are not changing account names willy-nilly, anymore, I must add.

You should have thought about it when you applied for the account and choose something you'd be happy with.

There was a period where we catered to these wishes, but then everyone started to ask for small changes or even total changes of name. This only leads to confusion as to who is or was who. And that's not how it works. So we only do it now, if there is a real need for it. No longer just to serve vanity, I am afraid. :)

Regards,
Fred

Post by: Mad_Fred on October 28, 2010, 20:26:21: Well it is what it is. If I change yours, then tomorrow 10 more people ask it aswell, just like last time when we went about and changed people's names without immediate need. You start with one favour that you do someone, and end up with loads of requests for similar unnecessary changes..

So sorry, but unless there is a pressing reason, you'll have to stick with the name you have chosen, I am afraid.

Fred.

Than delete the account you now have and make a new one, is that possible cptnchris?
