Resolved How do you change usernames?

[Yes]

Theoretically speaking?
Is it going to be a part of the VIP upgrade? If so, I totally agree.

But until then, how do you go about changing usernames?

For now, just message me if you want to change it.

It feels a little weird to make someone purchase an upgrade just to change their username, you know.

I'll write something up for the Site Guides section that covers circumstances where you can change your username.

For example, I'd probably say if someone used their real name as their username, I wouldn't set a time frame on when they can change it.

I've even looked into the idea of letting someone change their username every year on their own as an option.

Nothing is set in stone with that yet, though.

Are you already wishing you went with @Yes

I guess that’s called a conscience. I’ve been used to having everything locked behind a paywall that I don’t really mind though especially since it’ll go towards helping the forum. Maybe even custom user titles like the good old days. Just a thought!

I also wish to have been the 69th member. I’ll have to settle for 47 I guess.

The number in your profile URL gives it away. You are our 24th member!

I can look at custom user titles. If you look at @Rem's username, we've already got cosmetic username colours.

Actually, the last member, @V is #52, yet we only have 51 members.

The missing member might’ve been a rejected account as I don’t think those count toward to the total members stat.

Probably a name change caused it? 29dogs most likely got into the Db twice when name changed.

I considered that, although I’ve done 6 name changes here so far and haven’t encountered this issue.

I checked it, and whoever member #12 was cannot be found.

Thinking on it now, I may have created a test account and deleted it to try something out, which is why it can't be found.

Okay, a thread has been created explaining username changes.

Feature - Username Changes

Sometimes, you might want to change your name. No problem! Here on Office Outlaw, you can do that yourself once per year (every 365 days). The same time limit applies to how long your old username is on hold before someone else can claim it for themselves. If you want to change your username...
