    I have always wondered about name changes and if they're allowed, I wouldn't mind dropping the useless numbers off my username. I just put in whatever at the time of signup, not expecting to be a regular, but ive come to realize now that this is one of the best places on the net.

    Funnily enough I PM'd GP two days ago to ask for mine to be changed (privacy reasons and forgot to be discreet, similar to you at signup roman doh!) - haven't heard yet whether it is possible.

    No, can be done - just a matter of the time to do it (and respond to PMs!).

    Tnx GP .... I was just writing that it's probably a bit fiddly and I can imagine your PM workload .... so please don't take my response as a complaint .... far from it, I love this place (umm .... addicted?)!

    Seems like it was productive after all to create this thread. Go figure.

    At the risk of sounding like a nag any chance I can have the numbers hacked off my name?
    Not that i'm in a rush or anything, just a reminder to those with the ability to help me out :)

    thank-you.

    Certainly does ... more ... well ... "stately" too.

    Now that GP has changed mine too, will there be a bull run in new usernames ... ?

    What perplexis me is that although GP has changed your name for privacy purposes you still have to have a reference to your previous Username while Water and food does not??
