Request New Username Request Thread

eni · Mar 15, 2007

Please post in this thread to request username changes and a member of the administration team will respond to your request. Please do not PM any requests and as usual General Forum Rules and Etiquette still apply here.

A couple of things to remember before starting:

No Spam: This isn't a thread for any lengthy discussion, posting your request and reason is enough.
Be Patient: We may not be able to get to your request right away, it may take hours or even days but we will respond eventually; so no need to keep asking the same question.
No Impersonations: Requests for username changes with the intention to deceive others won't be entertained

Before posting to request a change of name, be sure to look through the member list to see if the name you want is already taken. It is your own responsibility to check. Failure to do so may result in us rejecting your request.

Be reasonable in choosing. Requests with symbols or otherwise unreadable will not be entertained.

Requests for name changes must be accompanied with a reason and all will be dealt with on a case to case basis.
Maximum request is set to 2 per year, with the second request not before 6 months have elapsed. Be advised that any impulsive second changes will be rejected and you will therefore lose your chance.

Slight name alterations will be done at staff discretion and again, on a case to case basis.

Thanks.

Special/accented characters aren't treated as unique letters by XenForo for whatever reason, so it's not possible to use what you want as "Kitty" is already registered. Feel free to choose something else.

It seems XenForo uses utf8_general_ci collation for the user table which results in the said condition, usernames aren't accent-sensitive.

The username was already taken, you can search for usernames on member search page. Blue usernames indicate global moderators, it's not possible for users to have a custom user color.

Greetings, :sweatbunny

I was just wondering if I could have the “grace” part of my name dropped.

So that it’s just Crescent_jinx

Thank you
