Changing Your Nickname

Friday, September 20, 2002 by T-Man | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Ok, I finally got off my lazy butt an added functionality for users to change their nickname. Just go to 'Edit Account' and click on the 'Change Your Email Address' link.

You must choose a unique nickname.

I think people should have the option to change their Nick only once. Otherwise everyone will be changing their nick like they change their desktops, and you will not know who you are talking to

People should be allowed to change what they wan't and when they wan't.. That's pretty simple.

But changing nick all the time is a sign of either 1. poor imagination 2. part time skizo...

After spending much time in chat rooms I have seen that the majority of ppl keep a name they like for a long time. Mainly because it is good netiquet *Spelling* not to play, "guess who I am today"

Ok, I did this as a rush job before I left work. Now I realize that I forgot to have it change your author name in the library. So if you have uploaded any files, I wouldn't suggest changing your name just yet. I need to work on it a bit more first.

T-man: Could you make it so that for a week or so after someone has changed their nickname, it will tell people on the forums.

If you don't I could change my name, annoy the sh!t out of everyone, change it back, and no one will know what happened, and no one will be able to trace me because no one will know what I changed my name to.

Hmmmmm. That's not a bad idea...

Every time you change the name it will change the name on all of the posts on the forum you ever made. So you can pretend to be someone new, but all anyone has to do is peek at your previous thread and see. And you can pull a trick with the new name, but when you change back to your old name, the trick will have your endorsement right there for all to see.

Joe...it's a little cartoon character I drew some years ago to represent an 'Observer' [comms Official] in Formula One...as I am one...and that's where 'JAFO' comes from....so it's on my left shoulder, with Marvin on my right and the Coyote on my fore-arm...[I hate the Road Runner]....
