Screen name changes

[Adeptus-Alaska]

Ok, so I noticed there have been name changes again. How do I change my handle......

[Adeptus-Alaska]

Never mind I'm dumb. I figured it out.

[Kastor Krieg]

Then share with everyone else?

[lfhoule]

  That is a thought: when's the deadline for if you want to change your screen name?

[Sun Reaver]

Yeah, I can't figure it out. I'm assuming it is too late?

Deadline is 17 August (two days!)

 

To change your display name:

• Go to your PROFILE
• Click the Edit my Profile button (top right)
• Click on Display Name (left column)
• Enter your new display name (and your password)

Some advice: Double check to make sure the name you want isn't taken and isn't too close to an existing member's display name before you change your display name. You can use spaces (i.e., you don't need to use underscores if you don't want to) and keep in mind the (negative) impact of special characters on the member BBCode.

I do not seem to have the "Display Name" option?

So nothing at all between "Email & Password" and "Signature" on the left hand menu? That's a bit strange, you could try logging out and in again but if it persists you can always request a manual change from an admin (within the deadline)

Nope, not a thing.

Try 'My Settings' and skip to step 3. ;)

[Jolemai]

For mobile users, I would recommend switching to the "full version" if you haven't already.

D'oh! Evidently we turned it off. Let's see, we posted the announcement on 17 June, giving 60 days. Doing the math (you can envision me both taking my socks/shoes off for additional counting tools and sticking my tongue out like a dummy) ... that gives me ... ah ... 16 August. Tomorrow. (Actually, I just looked at a Julian date calendar and added 60 to the Julian date for June 17th to get August 16th ).

 

Hmmm...

[WarriorFish]

Just checked, it appears to be disabled are you sure you counted all your digits right Tyler? Maybe we should have one more day for Dorn

 

What was it you wanted again Kastor? "I♥Psykers"? I like the little heart, very bohemian but we'd need to check if the software allows the funny characters so I can't make any guarantees...

[Kurgan the Lurker]

Yeah my bad there.....turned it off a wee bit early.

[Moonstalker]

Yeah my bad there.....turned it off a wee bit early.

 

Will we be getting one more opportunity to change it ourselves, or is it time to start writing PMs? :B

[Sun Reaver]

Same problem for me too gents. Do we just miss out on the option now?

[Jagus Kumkani]

Yeah, have we missed out on this?

[Kurgan the Lurker]

At this point yes. 

 

But it will come around again. 

[Frater Cornelius]

Just enough time to identify who is who now :D
