    So, I'm an old memeber returning, and I want to change my username. I feel kinda stupid with this username. How would I go about doing so?

    If a mod or someone with the power to do so is reading this, could they change my username to Nega Kyo. Thanks!

    You can't change your username due to it causing server stress. Create a new account instead :)

    I understand that adding the function would cause Server Stress, but am I allowed to personally request someone to change mine? Or does that one change cause server stress also?

    Its not like I'm too lazy to make a new account, I just wanna keep this one that says I've been a member since 2008. :3

    Any name change causes stress, and it shouldn't matter if you're from 08, just make a mention of it.

    Also for future reference you should check for previous threads about names changes since there already is quite a few of them saying why name changes aren't happening any more.

    Oh, ok. I understand.

    Is that a typo for shouldn't?

    Honestly, I hardly even check how long a member's been at PC. There's members on here who have been here for six or seven years whose current accounts were only made a year or two ago - it doesn't really make a difference.

    Welcome back, anyway.

    That sounds just like you're describing me. XD

    The account I abandoned had a 2003 join date and 3,300+ posts, so I hope you can afford to lose a 2008 join date and 7 posts. :P
