TJByrum -> Name-Change Help (12/11/2012 12:48:03)

I want to change my forum name. So I PMed Seahawk, asked for a change, and waited.

Now I don't like to rush people, I mean - we all have lives and I totally respect that, but it's been two months and two days since I PMed him. Still no reply. How long does a name change usually take?

EDIT: Here's the date of the PM:

It takes time, Seahawk is a busy hawk so he's not always on and changing names is not the only thing he does. How much it takes totally depends on how much Seahawk is available.



TJByrum -> RE: Name-Change Help (12/11/2012 13:11:29)

I understand Hollow Knight. I was just making sure I wasn't ignored and looked over or anything. Seahawk has his own life and I totally respect that, but 2 months make me feel like I was ignored and looked over.

No worries, I can wait! If any other mod or AK has more information I'd be happy to see it!

It was probably an accident that yours was overlooked, but name changes don't take that long. It usually depends on when he logs on.

quote:

According to the Staff and ArchKnights List, Seahawk is responsible for changing your forum name. You only get one rename, so make sure you really want the new name, nobody else already has the name, and you have a good reason. If, after all that, you're sure you still want the name change, then send him a PM and ask nicely. But remember that he's a busy hawk, so please be patient!

According to this FAQ, you need to PM him with a good reason and make sure you've already checked that no one has the name. Maybe that's the reason.

Hope this helped.

I searched, and no one else has the name I suggested. Unfortunately, the search excludes banned members, so can a mod or AK please look the name up for me? Thank you.

The name I want is TJByrum .

The only reason I can give is that it's the most reasonable name for me. I use the exact same name on every other account, profile, and membership on the web and everywhere else. My Xbox Gamertag, PSN ID, e-mail, YouTube, Facebook, etc. My original name, Ghost of Chaos, is something childish I had chose when I made my account, and I'd much rather change it to the same name I use everywhere else.

Edit: I've matured over the years since I made the account and would prefer a change, a more mature name.



Seahawk -> RE: Name-Change Help (12/11/2012 14:24:16)

Hmm, that's odd... I'm not two months behind on name changes (in fact, I'm rarely more then a few days behind), and I should have seen your PM. I might have missed it accidentally.

Edit:

Ahh, I see what happened now. Check your PMs and you'll see a response from me with more detail.



TJByrum -> RE: Name-Change Help (12/11/2012 14:37:45)

Thanks Seahawk, it makes sense now.

Thank you everyone for your help, my question/issue has been resolved and as such it can be locked/deleted.
