Title: Changing a Username
Post by: Can Gana Be Bettered!?!? on January 20, 2011, 07:25:11 PM: Hi,

Just wondered if it's possible to change a username?

It seems like Carew's not bothered with the Villa anymore and looks to be on his way out and so was hoping to change my username (I noticed others have Bent related ones!)

I've tried through the account settings but it doesn't give you the option.

Thanks,

Never have a username which includes any current player whose reputation can become tarnished. Note the plethora of usernames on here related to heroic players of everlasting repute from the early 1970s, often found loitering with intent around the memories section of this site.

Never put a current players name on an expensively purchased replica shirt. If you do have any name at all keep it short as its charged per letter, in this respect GOD is acceptable but IVO is not.

Never never ever have tattoos of any players names past or present, reputation intact or not. Its demonstrates an unhealthy form of hero worship and a possible lifetime of piss taking from anybody who knows you. Leave such behaviour to Newcastle fans.

I wouldn't have the latter, if I were you. Just sounds so wrong.

That'll do (though I'm sure he could be bettered - Messi?).

However, if it all goes tits up and his goalscoring record goes all Heskey-esque, then any abuse I recieve over the username will be re-directed to you! ;)

Title: Re: Changing a Username
Post by: cdbearsfan on January 23, 2011, 09:44:01 PM: You can log on to the General's thread if you register I think. You don't have to as you are a Golden Muppet so can automatically go on there.
