In preparation for the new forums, a small handful of usernames needed to be changed. Some of you knew in advance this was coming, but didn't know when - Sorry for not giving you more notice. Some of you were at the cutoff but I didn't realize it earlier, so this may be a surprise to you - my apologies.

If you got a name you don't like, send me a PM and I will get it changed again. Due to the fragile nature of the forum, I have to make the change during a downtime, so if you do need it changed, it won't be able to happen right away. If you can wait until we are up on the new forums to get the name change you want, that will be even better.

Here's the list of names and what they were just changed to. I'll send a notice to your email as well.


Stupid Mister Whoopsie Name -> Stupid Mr Whoopsie Name
Institutionalised Pederasty -> Institutional Pederasty
Computer Generated Faggotry -> CG Faggotry
Romanian My Escutcheon, Doxy -> Romanian My Escutcheon
Captain Reading Comprehension -> Captain Reading
Eat It. Eat it, You Nasty Pig. -> Eat it, You Nasty Pig.
eeccccoo tthhee ddoollpphhiinn -> ecco the dolphin
KING LITERATE, LORD OF READING -> KING LITERATE
The Plain Girl From The Low-Quality American Remake Of The Office -> <3
"Mangoes", or any variation thereof -> Mangoes
Marcus and His Band Of Mysterious Disco Ravens -> 2 Marcus 2 Ravens
Captain Cactus And The Water Preservation Squad -> The Deliverator
Fluffy, Our Beloved Flopsy Bunny Friend -> Wash
Timothy Leary Come Check Out This Theory -> TL,DR

    The loss of eeccccoo tthhee ddoollpphhiinn is a major disappointment. The name was an institution.

    ... Did you not read what Ramius said? Those names are being changed due to concerns / limitations in the forum migration. The only people in a position to make requests are those listed above, if their name-changes aren't to their liking.

    Yes I did read that. I just don't want this to devolve into someone asking for a name change just because.

    I want this to be very clear.

    I not only didn't know in advance, but couldn't manage to find this thread.

    Is the cutoff just a character limit? I liked the cadence my old version had.

    Poor < 3's name is mangled by the new boards. I think it's trying to do an emoticon but failing and it ends up looking like a period to me.

    Did you guys change Spawnbroker to anything new? I have been unable to log in since the forum change, it says there is no account username by that name.

    Do I PM a mod about this?

    Well, I've tried every password I can think of that was associated with Spawnbroker, and nothing. The only thing I can think of is my password was somehow changed during the forum reset. Also, I made the account like six years ago when I was still in school, and I'm pretty sure it used my old school email address that I no longer have access to. Kind of at a loss as to what to do here.

    PM me that school address (for verification) and the new email you want for the account.
