    Default The great namechanging thread! v2

    Hello there,


    this is the place to change your nickname! We're going to do some things differently compared to the old thread. Here's how it goes:

    • You can only change your name once every 12 months
    • You'll get a 2 week try-out period. If you don't like it, we revert it, but you still loose your chance to change your name for 12 months.
    • You can change your name to a name that has been taken by an inactive account. This means a user who hasn't logged in for at least 24 months, has 0 posts and is < junior member.
    • Please keep your old username in your signature for a week or two for people to get used to your new name. (Something like "Formerly known as nielsie95" will do).
    • We hold the right to revert the namechange. If we do, you'll get another chance.
    • Use common sense! Namechanges to nielsie96, administrator1, Pasta Magician and the likes will not be allowed.
    • Capitalizations are allowed without a time limit, but keep it reasonable and make up your mind.



    If you want to request a namechange, use the following format: [old name] -> [new name]
    If the change is not clear, please clarify it a bit (what exactly needs to be changed).

    Examples:
    nielsie95 -> HenkDaVries
    "Wizzup?" -> "Wazzup!"


    Happy changing!

    As of 07/13/2013 you will need to do a password recovery (Click Here) after your username has been changed. This is due to our new encryption methods using the username as part of the hash generation.

    For admins: please add a user note the account with the date and before+after name (not needed for capitalizations).

    NO! I want "nielsie96".

    Fine, fine, you can take "nielsie96". I guess I'll be taking "nielsie94" or "Pasta Magician" :P

    Just kidding

    I've also let Wizzup know so he can fix it up on the SRL Stats end when he has a chance. So if suddenly it doesnt let you log in, try grats instead of gratz

    If my o and i could be swapped, that would be nice, since that account hasn't been active.

    also can my stats be changed as well?

    Thanks

    Long ago, the '90s Nicktoons lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when the century turned. Only Avatar, the best of the 2000's Nicktoons, could save them. But when the channel needed it most, the show finished. Four years passed and Mike and Bryan created the new Avatar: Legend of Korra. And although the show itself is great, it has a long way to go before it can live up to The Last Airbender. But I believe Korra can save Nickelodeon.
