I'm sorry but we cannot do name changes.

If you want a new name you can create a new account and in case you want to transfer any guide from this account to that one, we can take care of it!

I only know that we can't do name changes, you'll have to create a new account to get a new name, I'm sorry.

I believe what Hades means is that it isn't possible to do name changes, not that they're intentionally withholding that option.
There's no earthy way of knowing which direction we are going. There's no knowing where we're rowing, or which way the river's flowing. Is it raining, is it snowing? Is a hurricane a-blowing? Not a speck of light is showing, so the danger must be growing. Are the fires of Hell a-glowing? Is the grisly Reaper mowing?! YES! The danger must be growing! For the rowers keep on rowing! And there's certainly not showing ANY SIGNS THAT THEY ARE SLOWING!

Hit that Rep button, you know you want to.

I don't think so. Most forums have the option to do so, they just refuse for whatever reasons.


I've only experienced two types of forums (BZPower and here), but don't forums usually have an option in the profile options to do a name change if they actually can do it?

I hate people like you. This isn't possible on this site. Period.

Come at me, Kurwa. Everything can be recoded or deleted if you indulge deep enough into the code.


So Hades should tell admins to change site's database only to let someone change their na... wait a second, who I am feeding.

Yes, we don't have the option to do so.

Our forum code is custom made and your account is associated with many facets of the site besides the forum. Also, remember that our site is a network in which you can easily sign in to any site on the network using your name and password.

Your account is associated with your name and we cannot change it.

We have already offered you the option to create a new account and transfer your guide over. All you would lose is your post count of 3. Every comment and vote on your guide would be maintained.

These are your two options. Make a new account or keep your old one with a name you prefer less. It is up to you. PM Hades if you make a new account and want your guide transferred. Otherwise, this discussion doesn't have much point in continuing. Locking.
