Mods, like Ali, can't change usernames. Only admin can I think.

I`m pretty sure someone on here changed their username not too long ago. I did it on the FTOOC when I was a member.

Please don't LOL

As Micky says, I can't change user names; I don't have the access rights to tinker/break important stuff.

Only admin can, which mean I end up having to pass on the message. So its probably better to cut out the middle man and go and badger Kieran instead (he's going to hate me for saying that ), as Sal's always without an internet connection, and Stu has claws so can't type/click very fast.

No guarantees on how long it takes. We had a name amnesty a while back and were flooded with loads of name change requests, so we had to put a lid on it for a while due to the extra workload putting K into a grumpy mood.
