We are now allowing people to change their username. This will reduce the frequency of double accounts just for a different name. There are, however, several rules for name changes.
You may not add or modify clan tags. You can remove existing ones, keep them the way they are, or move them to a different spot in your username. We discourage the use of clan tags in usernames.
You may not change your username within five months of your previous username change, or within five months of registration. So choose your usernames carefully.
Requests need a good reasoning, especially if you have changed your name before.
Admins can always refuse to change your name for any reason.
The new username must follow all normal board rules (e.g. no profanity, no misleading names like "admin", etc.)Post your requests in this topic. If your change is acceptable, it will be permanently recorded in this post with the date of the change. This serves as a record in case there is any doubt of your identity. We will also add a "former username" field to your user profile (and shown on posts) which you can request to be removed after one month.
The former username field is only for former usernames. It shall not be used for any other purpose.
The former username field may be removed after a one month oeriod upon request.To make changes as efficient as possible, please specify exactly what you want your name to be. It would be a good idea to put it in quotation marks ("") if there could be any confusion with punctuation or spacing. If we incorrectly change the name, we'll fix it, but it's best to be right the first time.

Xeno please.

Sep 21, 2004, 06:35 PM
Xeno please.

There is already a user "Xeno". I'm assuming it's you - so do you want to rename it to "Xeno_old" and change "Vercoln" to "Xeno"? Or do you want a new password for "Xeno"? I can't really merge the accounts, so you'll have two accounts no matter what. Currently "Vercoln" has 123 posts and registered in June 2002, and "Xeno" has 226 posts and registered in March 2001.

Xeno
Sep 21, 2004, 06:59 PM
Xeno has an old, unused email. Just switch that one to Xeno_old and make this one Xeno (or whichever is easiest).

Ninjajazz:


You may not change your username within five months of your previous username change, or within five months of registration. So choose your usernames carefully.

MoonBlazE
Oct 16, 2004, 09:03 AM
MoonBlazE, please. Capitalization means everything, you know it.

Yes, yes it does.

Tubz
Oct 20, 2004, 08:15 AM
Just to escape one of those useless rules, about clan tags. This would perfectly legitimate to do anyway. So I'm changin my name to just Tublear, 5 months from now, that should be allowed, ha.

MoonBlazE

Change my name to Alex[LR] please when you can (I dunno for how many months I'm registered)

Hazel-rah
Nov 19, 2004, 11:50 PM
there already is an Alex here.. are you sure you want to make it harder for us to tell you apart?

and also people are starting to take clan tags out of their names... they don't want to be stuck for 5 months...

Anubis
Nov 20, 2004, 12:02 AM
I don't yet have a clantag in my name. But I'm not the good old Alexander BG anymore for 3 and even more months. And I'm well known as Alex[LR], but if I become just Alex or Alexander, people who know me as Alex[LR] may not recognize that it's me (same is with the name I have now :p)

Hazel-rah
Nov 20, 2004, 12:37 AM
how about something completely different? Do you have to be Alex/Alexander? :S

Anubis
Nov 20, 2004, 01:04 AM
Who will know that it's me if I change my name? I better be Alexander BG until I choose the perfect name without clantag.

Hazel-rah
Nov 20, 2004, 01:10 AM
yeah, give it some thought. I wouldn't worry too much about people not knowing you. It's not your name, it's how you play. :)

Anubis
Nov 20, 2004, 01:32 AM
I always played as Alex on JJ2, for example:
Alexander BG
AlexBC
(BC)AlexVS
(BC)Alex
Alex[VS]
Alex[LR]
Alex<bG>BC[DK] O.o 3 clans

You may not add or modify clan tags. You can remove existing ones, keep them the way they are, or move them to a different spot in your username. We discourage the use of clan tags in usernames.<!>

Nov 20, 2004, 08:55 AM
Alexander: You registered on August 30, 2004, so you can't change your name until January 30, 2005. We also don't allow adding clan tags to names. Refer to the first post in this thread for the details of the rules.

Scizor: Is CT a clan tag? If it is, you can keep it because it's already in your name. But do you really want to? As Conker said, most people here are removing the clan tags because they don't see them as being important on forums.

Sciz CT
Nov 22, 2004, 03:06 PM
CT is not, has never been, and will never be a clan tag.

Just out of curiosity, when will this Formerly: >Cell< thing stop from being added to my posts? It looks kinda iffy. =/

It will be removed one month after the name change, so in your case, December 16, 2004. It's mainly intended for users who have complete name changes, but it's easier to manage and more fair if everyone has to have it.

TBM: I don't think names like those would be allowed.

We don't allow custom ranks like that. You can change your custom title though, which appears under your rank.

Fl@$h -> Flash, please. I think you can rename the current Flash to Flash_old because he hasn't posted for more than a year.

Well, change the name Bjarni Cool to TBM_old, thank you!

Dec 9, 2004, 03:11 PM
Flash, the old account "Flash" can't be changed because it's not you. If you can contact them and get them to post their permission here, I will change it. Otherwise you could keep "Fl@$h" or just suggest something else. I can give you their email address if you want.

Stijn
Dec 9, 2004, 10:59 PM
"Sorry! That user has specified that they do not wish to receive emails through this board."

Edit: Oh, thanks. Could you please OM his e-mail address to me?

FQuist
Dec 13, 2004, 07:37 AM
Please only post in this topic if you actually want your own name changed, Cooba and TBM.

(I have sent Fl@sh Flash's e-mail address)

Stijn
Dec 14, 2004, 01:58 AM
The e-mail doesn't exist (anymore). Now what?

FQuist, what should I do now? The e-mail doesn't work.

I really hate to nag, but why am I still Formerly: >Cell< ? =/

Dec 23, 2004, 05:36 PM
CelL: Sorry for not removing it sooner - I just forgot about it. It's not done automatically.

JSZ Jazz: Your name is changed. I didn't see your post before.

Flash: They seem to be a member here (http://tow.atomicwienerdog.com/phpbb2/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=4) and have a lot of posts. You could see if there's any other contact information there.

I have deleted a lot of posts (33) in this thread. In the future, avoid posting anything off topic or not having to do with name change requests.

Stijn
Dec 26, 2004, 07:05 AM
His last activity was in 2002 and he has the same e-mail address as here, which doesn't work. I sent him a PM but I don't expect much :P Thanks anyway.

DoubleGJ
Dec 26, 2004, 11:37 AM
How about using a trick so the nick won't be all the the same? Maybe "Flash." or "FIash"?

The formerly tag is added when your account name is changed into something entirely different, so that the change won't confuse people.

Stijn
Jan 25, 2005, 06:27 AM
please change my name to sers^^.

And could the "formerly" line please stay beneath my location, instead of disappearing after some time?

Link
Jan 25, 2005, 11:13 AM
Flash, keeping the formerly tag shouldn't be a problem. I added a note about it on the list so we remember.

PHT2, do you still want your name changed to LittleFreak? I didn't notice your message before.

Stijn
Jan 25, 2005, 11:34 AM
Thank you very much.

I understand what the Formerly tag is, but I was wondering if they could give me a Formerly tag without changing my name. If so, could I be "Formerly: The guy with the pants"?

LittleFreak
Feb 9, 2005, 10:29 AM
Just a question, how long does it take to change a user name? My request to change my name to LittleFreak is older than a month now, so I started to wonder.

Is this a topic where you can change your name on JCF only? Because I want another username on J2O, but not here.

You should read the thread more thoroughly.. You missed a post by an admin. Same thing happened to him: He missed your post.

However, my name's changed now, so I can be happy. :)

Thanks admins.

EDIT: Ah, I found it.

Feb 11, 2005, 09:49 AM
TBM: I don't know if a name like "FQuist's Clone" would be allowed or not, but it seems like it would be counterproductive after all the effort you put into being called "The Blaziken Master" instead of your old name. You also cannot change your name until the end of this month.

N0B0DY: The "Formerly" field is intended to tell other users who you are after a recent name change. It's not supposed to be a profile or vanity field. If it were used that way, its usefulness would be undermined.

DarkSonic: This thread is only for JCF name changes. There is currently no mechanism on J2O for name changes. If you really want your name changed on J2O you could talk to an active administrator there.

LittleFreak: Sorry for missing your post the first time. In the name change history I indicated your name change date as the date of the original request.

Alright, for the first time ever, in JCF History, and I will be the only person so far to do, I'm changing for the second time. Finally, 5 months have passed. After 2 months of careful thinking, because I won't be able to change my name again until July, I decided that I would choose a name that I registered things with, but a name that I would only use for 1 forum. And thus....

Please change my name to "Tubz"

Darobi, LittleFreak: Your former username fields will be kept until you wish otherwise. I've added this as a provision in the original post so more people are aware that it is possible.

Michael, unfortunately you can't change your name to "PeesInTheShower" at this time. While the name is questionable on the JCF, it is also not representative and the administration feels that it's not really a serious name. If you don't like the name "Michael", you can still change it to something else, but try to think of something that is more like a name and that people would be more willing to call you. You can put the requested name in your custom title if you really want it.

Also, several posts in this thread were deleted for being off-topic.

Nitro
Mar 12, 2005, 01:55 AM
The name is questionable: can you please make the discision of if it is or is not allowed, I think it seems alright but that's just me. d:
Representative: I was going to save this one for later, but.. actually it is, sometimes I do pee in the shower instead of before hand in the toilet, to save the flush water (which is around 8 litres) and use the shower's flow to flush, since there is a water crisis in Israel.
Serious: I have had this whole week to seriously reconcider, and I still want it, so I am serious and it is representative.
I want a differant name, people can still call me by it though "he who pees in the sower".
If I would register like a new guy with that name, it would be allowed, correct? if so then the way I see it, I should be able to change it to that as a registered user too.
Pls reconcider since the only probler now is that the name is questionable because of it's content about the rules.

You may not change your username within five months of your previous username change, or within five months of registration. So choose your usernames carefully.
No name changes for you this time. (No offence, because I just say it's true)
You'll have to wait five months in order to change your name.

I don't think the username character limit was supposed to be that small. I know there are other users with names longer than 15 characters. It probably got reset when we had database problems.

I'll make these changes when I get home, as it's annoying to do on dialup. Ninja should technically not be allowed to change his name back (it has not been 5 months), but I think it's okay since the change was fairly recent and he just wants it back to the old name.

To formalize this I'll say that people can reverse their name change within one month, but they still have a 5 month restriction for future changes.

There just are many Jazzes, Spazzes, and names related to that. And Slaz also looks much like that. And ur is an internet language version of 'you are' (or just looks like it), so I think Urslaz would be good. But let Link decide, when he comes.

Oct 7, 2005, 10:41 AM
There's no rule that says you can't have a name that looks similar to another. You're clearly not doing this to copy or impersonate URJazz (whose 'UR' actually originates from a clan tag), and people will not confuse you. He hardly posts, anyway.

So I shall change your name to Urslaz.

Do you want to keep the formerly field(s) indefinitely?

FQuist
Oct 31, 2005, 03:03 PM
I think Michael/Nitro wanted to go further than just swapping names. That he'd start to use the old account again and drop the newer one which is now Nitro.. so that he has an older registered date. Double accounts are forbidden, but I'm not sure if you already have two and you basically got through the system swapping them can be acted against.. I'd advise that Michael keeps using his newer account though, since it'd create confusion with his newer more recent posts not being searchable on his active account then. His newer account is his newer identity, and there should be easy access to recent posts by this user, and not only the old posts.

One thing that needs to be clear at least: do not use both accounts actively.

Nitro

Don't worry, the above is the only time I used both accounts activly. And that was for a technical reason too. And the warnings on both accounts can be balanced, like if I already had a warning on the newer account add it to here (unless that will get me banned now haha).

Is it possible to make the formerly tag permanent on this account? or like by changing it back to Nitro and then Michael again to restart the counter?

By saying you'd like it to stay, it stays permanently, if that is what you wanted to know.

What if the newer account was renamed to 'Michael_old' instead of 'Nitro', and also frozen (as Michael suggested) to prevent posting?

I think swapping is fair, or at least precedented (several others have requested name swapping, as well as Tublear who requested changes for inactive accounts).

I do not know about these precedents.. I haven't noticed them. Preventing posting on one of the accounts seems to be a good measure in whatever situation.

Maybe it's precedented.. I still think that renaming just for the vanity thing of making your registered date display as older is not a good thing (so it would be a bad precedent). Renaming seems to be a good thing, it allows users to continue identifying (feeling connected and involved) with their jcf accounts even when they get another name. Vanity renaming and especially name switching seems to me that it grants us work while having very little benefit to anyone, not being neccessary at all for having the user still identify with their account, and having the negative result of the user's post record breaking. I definitely consider that last thing to be an issue. I would generally disrecommend switching for that reason. (I also must think about the future warning system here and how it would break too this way)

As Link is the admin most involved in name changing though (having designed the policy too) I'll heed to his opinion.

Skeven and CrimiClown have been changed. I don't think 'AdminHat' would be allowed though.

(I've also neglected a former username tag for CrimiClown because there will clearly be no confusion.)

I have a feeling that people are starting to abuse this service, or at least make unnecessary name changes. I've changed the thread title to include "Read first post", and have removed the reversal exception.

If you have requested a name change recently and it has not yet been completed, you must confirm that you want the change and that it will be your name for at least five months. This means that the following people will not have their name changed until they post their confirmation:

Snooze
R3p
Grytolle
MSB3000

Other:

Stijn, why should such symbols not be allowed?

Images will not appear in usernames and would not be allowed if they did. You can have smilies like :-) but they will not appear as images.

They are not part of the name and are in such a way like clantags (at least I've not seen it used as Ho&trade;arine or something). And I find them annoying ;)

R3p, I just realized that your last name change was less then 5 months ago, so your name cannot be changed at this time.

N0B0DY, your ban request has been denied after discussion among the administrators. We just felt that it's not really an appropriate use of resources, and it would set a precedent for more ban requests. Try your own measures, such as putting jazz2online.com and www.jazz2online.com in your hosts file with a fake IP (e.g. 127.0.0.1).

As I'm posting onto this community again. I like to use J2O under a different username than my real name. But I hate to make a new account. So can you please change my name to: Hareking

I'm really going to post on here if my username is changed. And remember that I'm not a noob anymore, I've learned better English and I've much more community experience.

I wanted to rename myself 'Jerry RR' becouse there is another jerry on Jazz2 and my clantag is the only way to know who is who. But becouse I may not have a clantag in my name, just keep it as it is. Sorry for this nonsense post, I'm just bored.

Both J2O and the JCF have you registered as Hareking, yet you want to change your name to that. How can you rename yourself into a name that already exists?

Do you mean to merge your accounts? I doubt that would really be possible easily.

Also, only on the JCF name changes are permitted, not on J2O.
