Change user name?

[acroman08]

The admin should make a difference for each case, here we talk about a new member (so no risk for any bad effect) and not a legendary/known user.
50BTC fee applied when 1BTC perhaps was $5 or less otherwise I would be surprised anyone would pay this nowadays

you don't necessarily need to donate in order to have your username change. I remember one member of the forum who's username was changed after he asks theymos to change it. I feel that theymos would change your username if you ask and if your reasoning is valid enough for your username to be changed.

Well, against all odds, you managed to change your username, which in this case seemed potentially well justified due to placing your email as your username by mistake. The logical options were to do that, delete the account (anonymize), or have you change your email everywhere. I figure that you have not tied that email to your account, in order to reduce risks, and that you'll consider whether it’s worth changing the email per se.

A xMas gift by all means.

Note: You may want to ask people who quoted your OP to consider deleting at least the container, that bears your old username. I've deleted my quote in my prior post on this thread.

It is a very good reminder. I see some users still did not edit their posts and OP need to contact them via PMs to finish what you recommended.
Another note for OP is:

• What was changed is display name of OP, not an initial and also fixed username.
• OP can ask for changes of username (in fact it is display name) as many times as possible if theymos accepts it. But if I know the initial username, I can use it to search and search result will direct to the current display name of OP.
• I tested and detected interesting thing. This case looks a special case and theymos changed initial username as well. I can not search it with OP's old username. The above statement is right for other cases.

Nice to see that the Username is already changed to a new one and the email Adress Username is gone !
I thought in this case that it should be not take to long for changing it from theymos as the Username was an email adress !
So i guess the OP can lock this thread as the problem is solved or maybe a Global Moderator can do it.

The only problem is that your original post got caught by LoyceV scrapper and whoever knows how to use it can still find the email address there.
@LoyceV, is that something you could edit or delete manually to prevent people from seeing his email in public?

I'm not the only one running a scraper, so anythin you post should be considered online forever.

I've edited View all unedited (or deleted) posts made by PNW_Steve and my complete List of all Bitcointalk usernames. I'm not editing all quotes in my archives though, just like the old username is still visible in quotes in this topic. It might pop up again in for instance my Merit data too, that update is currently running.
