[QUOTE=Mr Kotov;52783130]Has there been any more news on the possibility of name changes through community fund? I would pay good money to get the Mr chopped off my name[/QUOTE][url]https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1580575[/url] tl;dr vB doesn't like it when names are changed. We get away with it once every so often when someone needs a name change to e.g. evade stalkers, but opening it up to everyone who wants cosmetic changes would probably result in something breaking.
Right, so it is pretty much a no-go? Sucks because I am concerned that people assume I am a guy but oh well. I'll keep an eye on it anyway. Also it looks dumb lmao
Even if your name was Princess Sparkles, people would still assume you're a guy. It's the Internet.
[QUOTE=Pascall;52783166]Even if your name was Princess Sparkles, people would still assume you're a guy. It's the Internet.[/QUOTE] Yeah it's not a huge deal, just something I'd like to change if/when possible.
You're telling me theres females on the internet?!?!?
I'm assuming it's okay to discuss in this thread, if vBulletin doesn't like name changes, how have users gotten their names changed in the past?

Hezzy only has limited tools, the brief time that name changes were made showed its effect on the system
That's good though, it means one the mods won't change my name as a joke or something
[QUOTE=Synelor;52783268]just 2 weeks ago kyle902 got his name changed to amber902 due to his transition if thats a good enough reason for a name change despite vb breaking down yada yada, i dont see why you suddenly dont qualify. selective picking by mods i guess lmao[/QUOTE] A bunch of people jumped on Hezzy after that namechange, so I think that's going to be a one-time thing.
If postal's title breaks stuff, does mine? It's using <marquee> too.
[QUOTE=AtomicSans;52783289]If postal's title breaks stuff, does mine? It's using <marquee> too.[/QUOTE] Well, you're using google chrome, do you notice anything wrong?

tbh some of my best posts are PUIs [QUOTE=Snickerdoodle;52125351]chicken nuggies take down thuggies[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=slapdown3;52783294]Well, you're using google chrome, do you notice anything wrong?[/QUOTE] I don't, but I don't see breaking after postal's title either. All systems are different.

Like if people have legitimate reasons that they want a name change, we don't mind considering it, but we can't do it for everyone who wants to change their name "just because". And messaging Hezzy about it with no real reasoning just annoys him. So I'd say if you have a reasonable belief that changing your name would benefit you in a way that's not just "I'll have a cooler name", then you can PM me to double check it and if it's valid, I can consider passing it up the chain to see what can be done.

"verynicelady" pfft I will not be fooled [editline]15th October 2017[/editline] [QUOTE=sam6420;52783361]Speaking of PUI bring back DD thanks Hezzy love you Edit: OH jesus how embarrassing[/QUOTE] Isn't there a drugs megathread still? Can just use that or make a new one in GMF if you don't want it publically accessible

[QUOTE=Sgt Doom;52783115]Newest Firefox is considerably faster than the old one, still in beta but seems to work alright.[/QUOTE]I'll have to try it.
IIRC mods transferred gold to a couple of people's alts when they asked. So if one really wanted to they could just make a new account and ask them to do it. Bam, there's ur new name.

Bam, there's ur new name.[/QUOTE] I have gold because I abandoned an old account with a dumb name and I got a mod to apply gold.
I abandoned an old account with a dumb name for another account with a dumb name
Speaking of giving people gold, can someone give gold to a member called Levelog?

[QUOTE=Del91;52783753]I abandoned an old account with a dumb name for another account with a dumb name[/QUOTE] I just never abandoned my account, even if I came up with the name for Westwood online when I was 13 or so and nobody except me knows it's am acronym. If labpunch punch ever becomes a thing I'll be able to change it but I'm not worried if that never happens.
Can I buy gold for someone else or doesn't that work?

Yep, I know all about that. How long does it take to take effect after you pay for it?
Sometime between now and next week
Is it okay to use your title as a larger than default avatar? It seems like it's kind of abusing the system.
