I've seen this sort of thing before, and most likely you won't get yer named changed if you don't have a good reason. Death asked if he could change his name cus' he didn't like it, and well, he's still known as Death.

For as far as I know, you can't change your name. Weren't you Lindsey before? The one with the bad grammar??? J/K. Why don't you use that account instead of this one? Or, if you didn't have an other account, make your own. But only if you haven't had one before.

Generally name changes require a very good reason.

But if you can't log into your old account, why don't you just reqest for the password to be reset. Here is the link if you need it.

Or just email me and I'll fix it up for you. No need to worry about changing names or using your sisters account. That's what an admin is here for.

I think we should be able to change our names whenever we want! The Admin could do that, right? If we could, i'd be Gandalf the Grey! And I'd switch back and forth! Could you guys do that, or is it impossible? Just wondering...

Switching names back and forth would be very confusing. Mods would have trouble keeping track and it would cause utter chaos!

Normally I'd post a long winded reason as to why such a thing would never be implemented, but oddguy did that for me in only two sentences.

The answer stands, and will always stand at no.

Thats what i'm thinking too....

Anyways, name change should only have a very good reason.

Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God.
You see things, and you say 'why'. But i dream things that never were and i say 'why not'.

But...you could put their old name next to their new name! Like The forumer formerly known as Grig! HEHE! Well, maybe not, but I'd like to change my name sometimes! 'Tis fun!

That is exactly why we don't change names. Names are changed based on extremely good reasons.
