Username change?
on: August 11, 2011, 06:50:32 AM
I'll try this here...tried an email but suspect it wound up going thru a spam filter.  I have only found one other older thread here about this so I thought I'd ask through a new one.  Is it possible to do a username change?  I don't want to abandon the current account but I need to get my first initial/last name off of any user accounts I have in various forms online.  I have a username I've picked out...verified it after logging out.

Thanks!

John

  I hear ya. When I changed my username away from Xelkos to Outback in Idaho, have been using Outback Idaho on just about everything else, even reviews. Totally dropped the "in".

  Problem with Xelkos was notorious people were using the name and really making a mess of what I started out in using. So I did not want to be affiliated with the garbage if someone did look up Xelkos on the internet. Originally the name was derived from a V'rix Helkos of Earth and Beyond game. Helkos became Xelkos, then later decided to add Cuhl (as in cool) to create an alias of sorts -- that never went anywhere. But I used a NeverWinter Nights eye logo along with Xelkos. I liked the effect. But the name Xelkos did get abused on the internet.

  Logo wise, I had superimposed a solar eclipse over the NWN logo, and played with the colors at some point. I make the logo look cooler. :P

Any reason you bumped such an old thread ?
