    Actually, how does one go about changing his username?

    Just use one of you other accounts?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 24,609 ✭✭✭✭arybvtcw0eolkf


    Nope, my name intimidates people.

    Want your go, or wha?.

    You appear to have some sort of a problem with my use of this website...would you have the decency to say it through PM instead of broadcasting it to the world?

    Getting back to my question - is it possible to change your username?

    Normally I would be like "**** you sir, **** you very much indeed" but you're bigger and tougher than me so to you I say "thank you for the very kind suggestion and I hope you have a good aul day me aul flower".

    I like my username, and my old one.

    But the amount of people who recognize me on the street is ridiculous, I usually get "Hey, if you don't mind me asking.. Are you MAKI".. And then try to make an attempt at the rest of the name.

    I await the day when someone in the street asks me am I "Uglybolloxface".

    Anyone ever ask you are you "Makimomo" and run off hysterically roaring car-related noises?
    ...expect it if I ever see you.

    lol, its usually at night!.

    Although worryingly one person recognized me from behind by my famous bikini photo!..
    he's a moderator here!

    Use one of your other accounts :pac:

    ...sorry, just going with the generic advice feebback inherent to boards.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,079 ✭✭✭✭Micky Dolenz


    If you subscribe to boards for a small weekly amount, you can change your username.

    does that mean the old one is completely gone.

    All your old posts will show your new user name. But if you had an old post quoted it shows your old user name.

    but you could be a completely new person.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,222 ✭✭✭robbie_998


    my user name is shabby... i just was not bothered at the time when i picked it.

    the 998 part doesn't resemble anything... its just a random number ! :pac:

    Oh, I just noticed your name doesn't actually say,we''llhaveatya,I really must pay attention.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,299 ✭✭✭✭later12


    I didn't really intend to keep posting on boards after one night when i was home, alone and bored. So I put no thought whatever into my name, I simply used part of my last name and the current year. If I could change it I'd make it something much more clever and sexy like THE ROSSATRON

    even though my name is not Ross


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,081 ✭✭✭sheesh


    sheesh do i Ever!

    .... and people who you know in IRL realised who you were on Boards? Or perhaps you called yourself like Icky Poo!

    I really am called Ogden Wernstrom.

    Note the "!" for emphasis.

    Nah. Most things about me are cat melodeon.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,326 ✭✭✭Scuid Mhór


    i regretted my old username so i got it changed. some would say that a real man would just deal with it and keep the old name but not me.

    Well, did you ever regret the username you picked?


    ;) Not realies ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,817 ✭✭✭✭Dord


    Nope, quite happy with my username. :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,252 ✭✭✭✭stovelid


    Don't really like it but I've had it so long, I couldn't be bothered changing it. Like most people, I thought of it on the spot to ask a question on here and just got stuck with it.
