User changing of Display Names for Knights+ (no longer available)
Siegfried posted a topic in Forum Information and Help
We've been considering this for a while and at last we've decided to be daring and allow one change of Display Names by members every 366 days for all ranks Knights and above. We might regret this... and if we do we'll just turn it off again. So for members who have been around for a while and have regrets about their choice they can now change/tweak it. I know what it's like to pick a name and regret it a week later! But do remember; choose wisely! Don't pick something that you're going to feel silly with next month. So how is it done? Go to your profile page, click Edit my Profile (top right corner), change to the Settings tab, the press Change Display Name. Do note that it often remembers recent name changes whether you or staff did it. Thus if we changed your name last week you'll have to wait a year. Also, remember that you are only changing your display name. If your sign-in name is the same, it will not change, so you will still sign in using the same name you had previously, not the new one. Only staff can change your login name. EDIT: The current board version no longer allows members to perform user name changes themselves -- changes must be requested from a member of Staff via PM.
