Since you've already had your name changed recently, I don't think you should change it again. This isn't a right, and frequent name changes can make it difficult for mods to track.

Hence why the ability to change one's own name was removed, thank God!

We had a MOD here didn't we, that would change his/her name almost every week? I think of his/her name's was OSX happy dude or something. I could be completely wrong!

A little off topic does anybody know what happened to Cattlerustler? I haven't seen him in ages!

He retired from rustling cattle, and decided to take on milking tarantulas and removing tonsils from cobras because his life was too dull.

He logged onto MSN a week or two ago (first time I've seen that happen), didn't get to talk to him. Maybe [insert conspiracy theory]?

I think all name changes should require a fee of 10 bucks for the annoyance the mods go through when somebody wants to change their name.

Because that would be a duplicate account (we have ways of checking ) and you could be banned for that.

Hmmmm... Some people do genuinely change their names for legit reasons. I remember that there was one user that admitted to getting their name changed every so often so people wouldn't accredit them for favors.

Why wasn't I then?

Edit

More to the point, why doesn't someone correct the title of this thread?

We're not here to correct the grammar in the all the thread titles. I see that someone did correct it, but we'd be here for days if that was required.
