Title: Can i change my name on here?
Post by: lucasjkr on June 04, 2014, 03:23:15 AM
that's all, just wanting to see if its possible to change my name (so that things like my post history stay intact) rather than making a new account?

Thanks.

Contact theymos or buy a VIP package.

VIP package ey - $32000/50 BTC to have the right to change ones name. Wonder if anybody has bought into this recently...

It gives you other things as well. Like changing your name when ever you want or special title.

Oh well, sign me up. Where do I donate?  :D I doubt anybody has donated to become a VIP or donator since btc went over $20 though.

I dunno, you might be surprised. 50 BTC to become a VIP and have the ability to change your name might be justifiable to who have established accounts and a shedload of bitcoins. Perhaps users would want to change their handle to cover their tracks.

Youre right, I would be surprised. Someone was trying to sell one on the Marketplace a couple of days ago for 5btc I think. Might not have been legit though.

You can change if you are a VIP , as aforementioned.

But , if you have a proper reason why you don't want , but need a name change , theymos may help you.

yeah, I can't spend 50 BTC for a name change... I just need to separate my bitcoin interested personal from the rest of my online life. I just started working for some very conservative people and i'm trying to clean up my online existence. This site might not seem too controvertial to you all, but in my particular situation, it's not at all beneficial and, I'm hearing, could even be detrimental. Not just here, I'll probably have to scrub my profile from reddit (i'll either have to delete my profile altogether or else delete a ton out of my post history), twitter (thankfully, can change your user name there), etc... Probably TMI, but that's my story... I'd be so much happier if i could just be BTC-Lucas or Lucas-BTC or something similar!

You don't need to separate your bitcoin life from the rest of your life - you just want to.

If you are embarrassed about some of the things you have posted on here, simply delete them and be more careful in the future.  Problem solved.  :)

Well yes, anything that you post on the internet is there forever (as long as Google indexes it that is)
 
By deleting old messages on the most popular bitcoin forum, he can mitigate the damage to his reputation.
