End of an ERROR: 1-20-09, do WE get NAME CHANGE AMNESTY?
Look, I really don't want to be 48percenter anymore, but I also don't want to muck up the board with another username, etc. I also don't want to lose my post count or my join date. All I want is to change my username, and get away from the 40percent of anything morons.

Skinner, for the love of God and Country, can we have name amnesty if we so choose? Thank you.

I'm tired of having a DU handle whose initials are a brand of oil treatment. I'd rather have a handle that reflects my love of cats (the four-legged ones, for you pevs out there).

7. Yes, there is going to be a name-change amnesty.
I think it's probably going to start the day after Obama's inauguration, and run for a week. We'll let you know.

20. PLEASE insure that profiles then include an automatic "Formerly Known As" entry.
Let's please ensure that such tracking is included if only to forestall instances of abuse. OK?

34. Well, you're going to have to let us know...
And what happens to your old identity? Does it get tombstoned? I looked up a couple of other old DU friends who changed sns and the old ones were tombstoned. But they weren't disruptors and they're still here... :shrug:

I had enough of a time deciding on my sn, don't have the imagination to come up with a new one... :dunce: :rofl:

BTW, I just gave another kick to your DU Pets video thread. More DUers will want to see it before it gets archived... :hi:
