Hey guys,
A short while ago I mentioned we would consider allowing a certain period of time for any name change requests to be made and granted by the admins.
I'm going to set the dates now so you all know. If you've been wanting a name change quite desperately, you will have
one week to seriously consider and submit a request for
one name change (and this opportunity may not come about again for quite a while).
The dates will be Saturday 1st November to Friday 7th November.
What to do:
1. Send a PM to one of the following people titled "Name Change Request".
- Dani
- Snowdog
- Rik
- D3FAULT
- Budge
(The above list may change depending on available admins for next week).
2. Ask for a name change and state the exact name you would like. Please remember to ask nicely, don't demand us - we are not your slaves and we are doing this as a favour for members of the community.
Once your name change has been accepted and approved (as long as it's appropriate) your name will be changed and a permanent usernote will be placed in your profile so the staff can easily see who you used to be.
You may want to change your user title or signature once you've had your name changed to show other members who you used to be. I'm sure the rest of the community would appreciate this when trying to identify you.
Remember, you can only make one request, and only within the time period specified. From then on the normal rules will apply and name changes will only be made under specific circumstances as stated in the
rules.
Look forward to seeing some "new identities" amongst our regular members who've outgrown their old gaming habits!
- Dani
P.S. If you make a request within the time period but it still hasn't been changed after the end date, your request is still valid, and will still be accepted if we can find the pm you sent.
