Some mod will probably tell you it's real pain in the a$$ because they'll have to look for every occurrence of the name "Driven" in the weeding section and then change it into your new name so as to avoid confusion.

Yes, I can change user names.

Yes, I can change user names.

didnt realise you could do that


tbh, when i do it i edit it straight in the database rather than the forum admin system. it feels a bit more complete doing it that way

technically, its a dead easy job. the only issues lies with the weeding section, as mentioned above.
@ driven: what are you wanting?

well, i think that sending a PM it's a easiest and good in formal point action, but it also can be useful when i'll request it in this topic.
Herr Administrator, Mr. Fiend

Please, no no no! No username changes if you have open reweeds!Bartoszek wrote:well, i think that sending a PM it's a easiest and good in formal point action, but it also can be useful when i'll request it in this topic.

Well, that should be a condition.
Has Quiff Boy been told of the coup yet?

i didn't start weed(ing). i'm clean and free 
ups,sorry i forgot about you Mr

ups,sorry i forgot about you Mr

In that case, no problem. I would dread having to go through all relavent weeding threads to change a username.Bartoszek wrote:i didn't start weed(ing). i'm clean and free

Just to be clear, Quiff Boy is the administrator. he gets to play with all the buttons. Some, like markfiend, get trusted as moderators; they have a few toys at their disposal.
Just to be clear, you really, really wish to be Bartek? If so, no problem. I would hate for you to try to log in and not know that your username had been changed. Remember, there is a one change limit, so you would be stuck with your new name.
yeah i was thinking about other, let's say more sophisticate nickname(s) but i choose this simple form of my real name. reason was that my current nickname it's... well.. a bit childish ( of course for somebody who knows polish
)

It did not prevent someone from going by the name Kaka....Bartoszek wrote:yeah i was thinking about other, let's say more sophisticate nickname(s) but i choose this simple form of my real name. reason was that my current nickname it's... well.. a bit childish ( of course for somebody who knows polish)
Anyway, your have been rechristened Bartek .

but before i do, can you just confirm that you dont have any active weeds at the moment? (or at least not many?) it will make updating the weed section a bit trickier you see
