You can just register with a new name (unless it's already in use).
The forum policy allows alt accounts.

Oh didnt know that, would new account have to go thru newbie restrictions ?

Your new account will work the same as when you first started with your first account.
You don't have any advantages, perks or less restrictions with your alt.

Actually there would be time limit restrictions, since you start with 0 activity.

Contact theymos with this request. While you are allowed to make a new account, for your sake I would suggest just renaming this one so that you don't have to start over.

Yeah, what he said.. a year ago.

Theymos can change your name for free upon request, but if you plan on changing it often you should become a donator.

Can I change my name? Here is some admins?

You can only change your username if you become a donator (and donate 10BTC), or become staff one day.

You are a newbie with only one activity.You can easily sign up for another acc the desired username if it is available.What is the big deal here?

  thank you guys

[Mame]

also here for the same question!!

What is the reason behind why you guys want to change your user names? if you can create new account.
I think there is no option to change the user name once it was created, also if you create an account you make sure the name would be more valuable to you because it would be represent you in this forum.

thank you guys

This post was from October 2017.

According to the (unofficial) Rules:

Q: I want to change my forum username. What should I do?
A: You can either donate 50 BTC to become a VIP or PM theymos asking to change your username (although he rarely accepts such requests nowadays).

@Mame Those accounts (including the OP author) must've been bought.

But I highly doubt that Theymos will grant those types of requests.
Imagine if someone bought an account and he didn't like the username, if it is that easy for a username to be changed, a granted username change request will act as a promotion to account sellers.

So, was anyone able to successfully change his username?

[HumberWins]

I think to change your name you should be a moderator or doner member , you should pay 50 bitcoin to the forum to be a copper member

[NeverArgueWithWF]

I dont think we can change name...

[tmfp]

Yeah, theymos changed someone's name for them recently, what was it?
Began with an "a"......

Here it is:

Yes, a change from alia_armelle to alia is a minor change which I would normally do for anyone who can convince me to spend time on it. (If I recognize your username, I'm much more likely to handle your requests. I'm also much more likely to look into your scam accusations...)

I never accept payment for this sort of thing.

theymos verified alia in /r/GirlsGoneBitcoin, so she had a kind of contact with him.

I think she probably just sent him a PM.   He has also written somewhere that he changes the username in some cases. But there must be a valid reason.

Of course in must have a valid reason, cases like changes of essential information specially name changes might be subjected to a background check. To avoid abuse and being used as an advantage to trick others.
