How do I change my screen name on here because I dont have a baby bump anymore haha =] help please!?
informer - it's our software, so we can do really anything we want with it...eg, allow (or disallow) people to change usernames, etc.
The main reason is confusion, if we allowed it, then it would both hurt members (they'd get confused) AND it would cost us traffic to the site, which would lower revenue, new user sign ups, etc.
Facebook doesn't allow you to "change your name" as you use your real name on there...should we allow, one of people the ability to change their username to their real name? But, we get abuse of that feature already - eg, I've seen people add their "name" that was clearly not their name.
Usually, we recommnd people delete their account & then create a new one if they want to change their username. However, we have made an exception or two in the past, for good reasons. If you want to discuss that, drop me or an administrator (one of our paid staff) a fun mail.
to stop confusion.
if youd change your screen name ever so often people would get confused.
or the board system fun advice uses doesnt allow name changes so it can keep updating without having to start a new search of you everytime
That sucks, I dont see why we cant change our screen name. I would really like to know why...
You cant. User names can only be changed if it has their real name in it for personal reasons.
ok thanks anyway =]
