still allowed to change names?

[Chronomar]

is it still okay to ask to change our name?

The reason why I ask in this thread is because I think a while back I may have PM'd someone about it but didn't hear back, so figured maybe it isn't allowed anymore unless we have a better reason than 'my name is bad and I should feel bad'.

Anyway, it's not a big deal, but just wondering.

It hasn't been allowed in a long time.

whoops missed the memo. I'll just return to wallow in my supreme lack of name creativity then. Thanks for answering.

Sure. I view you the same way as my endearing nincompoop little brother.

An ENTP in disquise, perhaps?

Sure you are! *gives eagor a power noogie*

That was mostly a probing attempt to produce comparative analysis between cognitive and social introversion. Mostly

I would like to change my name to SwirlyTimeDick4 if that's possible.

It's a time investment issue, I'd think. I had another name I liked "Entendre" with the subtitle "I have no double" That was a name I chose for a "rant" forum where I thought I was still just having fun and had yet to learn that a lot of "rant ravers" actually take themselves seriously. Now I might switch forums but I keep the same name because they don't scare me. But then I didn't spell "koan" wrong. And it doesn't mean anything other than you'd be more enlightened if you don't answer me. hehe

Last person I know of who got theirs changed was Cake/Mello.

Hey, my name is spelled incorrectly too. Intentionally, so does that mean it is actually spelled correctly?

I don't like my name, but I've gotten used to it and just ignore it. I don't post here often enough to fret over it.

That DID happen after the official policy against name changes, amirite?

Not that I'm lobbying for a change in policy (not everyone can come up with something as good as THD on their first try ), but expressing curiosity about an outlier (or at least a perceived outlier).

 

[Oedipus]

I think so.

Pretty sure there have only been two exceptions between 2011 and now. That would be a very small and infrequent outlier(2/yr avg).
