Hi SF, I think it would be benificial for SF members to be able to change their registered user name for added privacy. When i registered I obviously used my real name, if i could register again i would use my nickname or something else, I aint got nothing to hide, but i probably hold back on my views somewhat cos i dont know who is monitoring the forum, please please please, change the user name format so numptys like me can have a second chance with out having to get a new e:mail address and lose my JR status which as took some time to acheive.;);)

Yours hopefully

Dave
 
When I joined I was only getting the hang of using computers, I clicked onto the forum and noticed all had made up names, so when I joined I thought that is what you have to do, so I picked Brandy. If it were allowed to change and keep the posts I would prefer to use my real name, which is Terry. Is it possible. ?
 
I'd like to be known as "That good looking B.astard with the 12 inch C.ock" but it's not going to happen is it?
 
Dave, there is a school of thought that say's thousands of people will change their name by deed poll to get rid of the stigma attached to their profile built up on things like facebook and the like. I know what you mean about curbing your view but I would say leave it as is, this is a common medium for discussing most things but just how wrong could it go discussing scaffold?:eek::noworry:
 
If anyone would really like me to change their name for them I will, but only to hide their privacy.

You would not believe the amount of requests I get to change usernames and for forgotten passwords!

It is not common practise and no forum would allow the user to change their name manually as it would be impossible to moderate.

Best Regards

HA HA, Scaffy. No, its when I joined I could'nt think of a name so I remembered I'd won a bottle of Brandy in the pub the night before, hate the stuff, ended up giving it away.

aye my name is dave baldwin and proud of it wot i say and wot i do so no name change 4 me thank you
 
If we allow members to change their names would they please change their habits too so that we have less of the bad language that offends some of us.
 
TomD is just an alias of mine, my actual name is Sir Byron Hoffenheim the 3rd :D ha
 
Too late for me now, However, if i was to change it, i would be 'Marmite' you either love it or hate it. Seems quite apt, and i might of even got another scaffolding start somewhere if i get bladdered.;)
