Hey I was wondering if I could change my name to ChiffaniChan?

I oughta give you an award for being the first to post here in the new Help Desk section!

Yes, I can change user names for the forums, but not for the fanfiction section. (The techies can change the fanfiction names though, but let's save that for another thread.)

If you guys want to change your forum user name, post on this thread what what you want as your new log in name and/or display name.

I know that the Display/Log in name is different but if I had my log in name changed would that change my display name also?

I don't think so. Why don't we find out? What log in name do you want? I'll change it now, then we'll see if it changes your display name.

I want ChiffaniChan.

Well, now we know the answer. I've just changed your log in name, but your display name stays the same. Do you want to change your display name, too?

Yes please.

*waves admin wand* OK, done! You'd better put "I'm the former BloodyRegrets" or something in your profile, so that our PK-mates would know it's you.

Alright, Thank you gal-texter!

Hi, I'd like to change my name to M.C. please. Thanks.

M.C. as both your login and display name? Kindly confirm. I'll be back tomorrow (some 12 hours from now as it's almost midnight for me.

Yes, thanks!

M.C. - done.

Tardis - I've changed your log in name.

To change your display name - we've set it so that members (non-mods) can change their display names.

M.C. - you've been here since 2003, yet you've managed only SEVEN posts? Now you're the quiet type! Not that it's bad.

LOL

Dude, these days I easily make seven posts a DAY, mostly in the mods only area. But I'm just teasing ya. Glad to see PK oldbies here.
