Why wouldn't we allow you to?
Don't even bring up the "regular folks" saying. We might be your superiors in power, but, eh, trust me - none of the mods would support bABA denying someone a name change considering his new name. It wouldn't be fair.

Just wondering since I seen mods change their names but can regular folks like us get them too or is it too much of a hassle? |

Thanks for answering the question, sir. I was very fearful that I may be banned for bringing up the question. My apologies sir if I said something offensive. I know us regular folks are rather rude. How may us low life people go about requesting a name change, Mr Salsbury? |

I've been thinking of either altering my current name or just making a new one, and wondering which path you see as preferable. |

I don't mind name changing, but I don't really like it, either. |

If you do go back to baba, please spice it up again some time in the future, it made me laugh. |

I think name changing is fine if it doesn't become a habit. Think lond and hard about what name you want to be, and if you change your mind a couple months down the line, no biggie. If you hassle Token Brown Dude with a pm at the turn of every week wanting to change names, just think about how much extra work he has to do, and how confused everyone will get. But a change or two is perfectly fine. Not everyone can pick such divine and infinately interesting screen names as darth pimp, ahmed johnson, or mike ventrella... :wink: |

name changes can be annoying for the whole forum if done on frequent basis .. thats why i went with token brown dude cause peopel would know that brown is me. Plus it says site admin so its easier to guess. Its certainly something i wont do every week or so .... prolly change back to baba in a bit and wont touch my username again till bday time ... |

I agree that it should be done sparingly. What you could do is have like a once every 3 months rule, except in rare judgement-call cases. Or some variation on that as you see fit. I don't think it will ever become common. While I'm considering changing mine, I wouldn't keep rotating it or anything. Most of us like the idea of being recognizable. |
