We've seen an influx of name change requests lately, so I just wanted to lay some ground rules. The tool is very useful in some cases, but when abused, things get crazy (and confusing).
Name changes are intended for:
-Gene
Name changes are intended for:
- People who want to align their username with other sites.
- People who signed up using their real full name and need to take on an alias for professional reasons.
- People who signed up with an alias and want to use their real name going forward.
- Jokes, LIFs, BIFs, or pretty much anything else intended to be done on a temporary basis.
- Impersonating other users, current or former, even if harmlessly so.
- Differentiating your username between TalkBeer and other sites
- 96% of other reasons not listed here.
-Gene
