Well, so, why can't he have it if it's not used?

I only use the -eso suffix when my preferred name's taken, which I just now realized isn't the case here. Would it be possible to change my name to Virgil?

I think it's time to change my name from Lago PARANOIA...

to Legend of Lago Maxx. With the period in it.

Make it so. :kindacool:

You do not want me to be informed when I make the fundamental decisions of deciding whether to join your game or buying your rules system.

From my understanding, it's a two part thing.

All of the stuff after Lago are difficult Dance Dance Revolution songs to play.

Second, Lago is crazy.

I think you have the order reversed there, DragonChild.

[The Great Fence Builder Speaks]
Keep in mind Z does the data base maintaining thing for free. So, yes, he has said several times that name changing is an easy fix, but I would like to reserve it for things like typos, or "this name wasn't available when I registered on the old board, but is here for whatever reason". That sort of thing.

That said, I have no problem with this request as long as you plan on keeping it for a while. Changing your name for cosmetic/vanity reasons is not forbidden per se, but abusing Z's desire to fly solo in the IT department virtually free of charge is.

We will change your name, Lago, but it is yours until at least this time next year.

Sound fair?

O Great Fence Builder,

could you change my name to STSilva? It being from my birth name, I wouldn't change it further in any case I can conceive now. (FWIW, I intend to acknowledge the previous name in the signature.)

In the name of standardizing my username with my username on several other sites, can get my name changed from "Lord Mistborn" to just "Mistborn"

Edit: thanks
