I'd be a little upset if someone had a name exactly the same, bar one space, than me.
Probably. And just like every other time someone got mad on teh internets, it wouldn't change a thing.

Hi Frank the Auditor. I'm Lance the Arsekiss.....err, Consultant.

Re: Abuse the auditor

It is possible to change name. Nickers had a different name and was recently changed.

I actually think the avatar is more quickly associated with a forum member rather than the name; I find it kinda interesting to occasionally look at the member list without looking at the names on the left, only the avatars on the right, to see how many members I know/recognize strictly based upon avatar.

Anyway, welcome to the fourm, Frank [space] S! I say, "Embrace the space!", good man!

Re: Abuse the auditor

I demand that Brighouse change their name. It's easy for people who don't know the exact location of obscure West Yorkshire towns to confuse them for me.

In fact, I think I've accidentally received a lot of rep meant for Brighouse.

It appears to be so, but when I first joined and asked to change my name (for obvious reasons), I was told that it was not possible.

That change I found a lil bit ridiculous to be honest.

Can I change my user name to:

Help I'm trapped in the EF Login screen?
