Make your username change request here. You can also contact any moderator by PM to make your request.
Your username will be changed to exactly what you've written here, so remember to double check before you post.
Please note, we’ll allow one username change per user with no question, as long as your preferred username does not break a site rule. After this you will need to offer a compelling reason for a second name change, which will only be given at the discretion of the moderators.

I've just read my last post and realised that I'm not a biatch anymore (it's the name I brought over from the "other site" where tbf I was a biatch in the forum I was in)so I'd like to change it please, if Captain Spacecoat isn't taken I'd like that please, I used the search and couldn't see spacecoat anywhere so hopefully it's not but if it is could I have SakuraPhil instead pls (yes they're both quite crap names, thinking up user names isn't my strong point!)

Strange. It's your username that makes you cringe, not, say, interacting with the judgmental mothers that have nothing else to do with their spare time on here?wolfgutscharlie wrote:Can you change my name to 'goldsaucer' please? I cringe every time I log onto here with this awful username.

Charlie, give it a rest. If you're so concerned about who's saying what about you and why then forget the username change and keep to a social circle you can agree with instead of writing missives about people allegedly judging you when you do a good enough job of doing the very same back as it is. There's a world of forums and groupchats out there where you can broaden your horizons beyond IDB if the members here bother you that much.wolfgutscharlie wrote:That too!

although the fact you keep returning to both the subject and the site says enough on its own.
