Lady Rarity Pony 4,892 May 8, 2012 Share May 8, 2012 I was wondering if we can get four username changes as opposed to the usual three. I find when I change my username I always get stuck on a strange username because of the odd number. Was wondering if it can be bumped up to four? LRP's opinions are subject to change without notice. Fees and penalties still apply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champion RD92 8,658 May 8, 2012 Share May 8, 2012 I wouldn't mind that. Although I rarely change my name lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinkazoid 3,493 May 8, 2012 Share May 8, 2012 I'd like that, but maybe they only allow three for a reason... :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLARE 952 May 8, 2012 Share May 8, 2012 (edited) I sorta agree, these name changes can happen at the worst of times *** "Flare^99999999999 Apr 01 2012 10:11 AM Flare^99999999999 to Flare^03 @ Apr 27 2012 07:11 AM (That was my own fault though....I was stuck with my april fools name for almost a month.)

Dave247 568 May 8, 2012 Share May 8, 2012 It says you can change it 3 times in a 15 day period though so my understanding is that after 15 days since the first time you changed your name it resets. I could be wrong though. My Ponysona: DaylightAvatar by the very skilled: @ErBoiSignature by my friend: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong though. Which means that you could change your name every 5 days... Thus with you changing it every 5 days you would hit your 3 change limit in 15 days..... But after the normal 5 day wait period you can change it again...so its, like, no limit at all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arylett Charnoa 4,919 May 8, 2012 Share May 8, 2012 Honestly, I don't agree. I think the name changes people are allowed on these forums are already far too many. (I'm of the opinion that they should be cut down, but that's not really relevant to this) It gets really confusing with those who like to change their names all of the time and having to go to their profile to check. Three is already too much. Three, in fact, is extremely lenient compared to the majority of forums. Giving people four would just give them more excuses to go insane with their name changes. 9 Aether Velvet is the name of the OC in my avatar. Drawn by me.

Flow 1,629 May 8, 2012 Share May 8, 2012 I have to say that three name changes is enough, because I believe it would put more strain on the site, which is still recovering from the recent DDoS attacks OCs: Flow / Love Bloom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavelColt 22,882 May 8, 2012 Share May 8, 2012 I rarely ever change my name, and 15 day period for three name changes is very lenient. I come from another Sonic forum, and do you know how long it takes to change your name? You can change your name once. Every 6 months This places' rule on this fact seems very fair to me.

Evilshy 5,090 May 8, 2012 Share May 8, 2012 This is actually the only forum I've really been a part of where name changes are allowed at all. I'd say take it down to 2, or even 1 a month. People changing their names all the time is annoying :/ 2 Signature now 99% less edgy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's fun when we do those name change games, like the time where everyone changed to royalty, added "oop" at the end of their names, or imitated others during April Fools day and such. I tend to either not need it at all, or use them all up in a short burst. Edited May 8, 2012 by Ezynell 2 GAK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to say, I've been considering cutting down the name changes for a long time as well. It does indeed get confusing when members go willy-nilly with them, and established members suddenly lose their identity for a few days as everyone realizes it's the same member under a different name. At any rate, we definitely won't be increasing the limit anytime soon. If you feel you absolutely must get your name changed, PM an admin and ask nicely. 2 Avatar credit: robinrain8 Signature credit: Kyoshi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proctra Music 335 May 11, 2012 Share May 11, 2012 I think having the privilege to change your name at all is amazing! I think cutting it down would be sound, the name change feature should be thought out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nas 2,873 May 11, 2012 Share May 11, 2012 The name-changing priorities here are MUCH better than that of my other forum that I go to. For that, we have to ask a mod/admin to change it for us, I's rather it be more personal quick, and easy. Cheers to that! My journey in the fandom started on April 5, 2012. I joined here on April 24, 2012. Where that journey is headed now, who knows... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoid Libby 1,265 May 11, 2012 Share May 11, 2012 There was something I was supposed to mention about username being a username. You know, the only thing everyone can know you by? Makes sense if namechangeroo is for a RP, not much outside of it. (Unless you managed to piss off most of the forum and wish to disappear.) It's excessively liberal as it is, in my opinion. Name change and five minutes of liberal editing around in the profile effectively changes everything.
