Forum Account Names
 
Personally, I don't go by Excaliber anymore (it's Cali people). I'm sure there's other people who don't go by their account name. I was thinking there could be a way to change the name you go by. Now, the problem arrises where people could change their name so no one will be able to get to contact them. Well, for the people who go with a custom name, they would lose the ability to have a custom user title. The custom user title will instead be their account name.
In this way, there's no possible way for people to hide who they are, but their name will at least be the right one. It'll be easier to talk to people too. More personal and such.

Your thoughts?

Some forums allow you to change your name so I don't see why not. Maybe another slot thing under your user title. I like my user title and don't want to lose it.

MysticX2X 07-19-2008 06:17 AM

Well your forum accounts name is connected to your real account...

xAzerothx 07-19-2008 06:20 AM

Make it so you still use your old name to login its just your name appears differently when you post?

If that's possible, why not?
I'd forgo it so I could have my normal graal name up there.

The login would have to be your forum account name, at least I think.
I'm up for any solution that gets rid of that dumb name up there. :p

cbk1994 07-19-2008 06:24 AM

Or allow community name changes.

I don't think I'd buy a new account to just change my name.
I'd love to change my whole graal account name though :eek:

I also got my name changed to cbk1994 (from my other account).

But, that does require buying another account, and nothing else will transfer besides your forum stats.

excaliber7388 07-19-2008 06:50 AM

Buying a new account that could go on the forums is out of the question.

excaliber7388 07-21-2008 07:43 AM

So, any moderator/owner input on this? :D

Crono 07-21-2008 04:17 PM

I like it the way it is. Makes everything seem more "official".

Loriel 07-21-2008 04:51 PM

Perhaps you losers should not have registered such horrible account names to begin with!

I am with Crono on this

I agree, and I'm with you and Crono ;P

Curt1zzle 07-21-2008 08:35 PM

I vote No. Suck it, Cali.

I was 12 or so when I made my original account dlang. Middle initial and last name, not very original.

The point: many created their accounts when they were young and stupid :p

Loriel 07-21-2008 08:56 PM

I am pretty sure I was twelve as well when I chose my account name, and I dare anyone insult it!

xAzerothx 07-21-2008 08:57 PM

Loriel sounds like some kind of shampoo.

Loriel 07-21-2008 09:01 PM

I am going to hit you in your stupid face if I ever meet you :mad:

Every time I see your account I'm reminded of the Loriel Shampoo commercial.

Did you use it at the time?

Loriel 07-21-2008 09:24 PM

If you review your internet you will notice that there is not in fact a shampoo with that name!

Crono 07-21-2008 09:25 PM

I tried pulling the shampoo thing a while back, it's actually loreal or "L'Oréal".

There is also a funny line on the e!

Inverness 07-21-2008 09:35 PM

Details are insignificant. I pronounce your name the exact same way they pronounce the shampoo's name.

Totally true. Though, now that you mention it, I got a question to Loriel about the pronounciation of his name...do you pronounce the "ie" like an "e" or like "e-a"?

Theres not much Loriel can do about that now is there?

That made me laugh. Not as much as your name though.

Convincing me to say Loriel's name differently would be like convincing someone to say Graal differently.

I am tempted to take this as a compliment.

I would link you to utilitarianism, minimalism, and the definition for "K.I.S.S." but I cannot.

Suffice to say I'm awesome.

But can you provide a good reason, Curt1zzle, Loriel? You 1337 fellows, you.

Yes it is. When did World of Warcraft get released?
