Hello !

This idea is about Forum username and what is shown.
ex.

My username is "mansenmann" and I don't want it to be shown as mansenmann but Mansen, for example.
So, if we could change the name that is showed and not the username. Maybe possible?

PM a Manager or above for name changes, also wrong section... Moving to correct.

Thanks, but it is kinda hard work pming a admin. I've pmed Gimli and Gandalf.. I am still mansenmann.

We should have it like ARPD forums.

Or make a topic for it, for name changes.

[Driggz]

Its possible. But idk why they dont want to activate name changes.

It certainly is possible, but people will change their names every second and might use offensive names.

I support a topic for it. Or think well before you register

Offensive names?
Than why are the Forum admins here? :o

Completely supported.

Forum admins won't be on their computer (or whatever) sitting there and watching everyone to behave. It might happen though, I support it as well then. But I don't think it's possible, but maybe set some boundaries like you can only use it 1 time a day.

It's possible to change the forum display name but not the login name. For example, my display name on the FBI Forums is "=AV=JDC", but my login name is different. Even with full administrator rights on that Argonath SMF Forum, I cannot change anyone's login name.

Simply PM a global moderator to do so. (Managers+).
There are available ones, always.

Patience is the key.
