That is a fantastic name change, but no, it wont let me call you guitars

You just need to have a good enough story/reason behind the name change. GHOSTCLAW got his named changed (and he wasn't even the one who requested it).

How about setGuitarsToStun?
Toning it down a bit now that you are a veteran.

Even if it is a simple change? Like from WrathSCII to Wrath? There is a user with name Wrath but it was made in 2008 and did not do a single thing, maybe boot him and give that nickname?

Only on special occasions and circumstances do the admins consider giving a name change even if the user exceeds the 500 post count rule. But you have to have a good reason or state your case well for them to consider doing so.

Yeah, it's just confusing with posters changing names. Just stick with it, the same way you stick with your RL name.

It can be frustrating to include your age in the name, when one year later, the name is not actual anymore. But that is a special case, ask them to change your name to Cricketer13! :-)
