Well. Wait and see what a moderator says - because they don't like users creating multiple accounts either.

But yea, they're not gonna change your name for you anymore.

You are not allowed to have your name changed or create a new account, if one is found it will be banned.

As for deleting accounts, I know Dar has done that before. I don't know if he still does though - because people who want to change their name might just ask them to delete their accounts now, since he stopped changing names for people.

I think you're stuck with what you got, man. Name changes hurt the forum and make things confusing. Not to mention it pesters the administrators when people want to change their name every 3 or 4 months.

However.. you only have three posts. So he might make an exception for you since you just registered. The problem was when members with hundreds, or thousands, of posts wanted to change their names multiple times.

I am ok with the name. It's not that big of a deal, just wanted to change it.
Thanks for your patience,
Omri.
