Public request to Theymos for a name change

[Pmalek]

I think TP should get his name change (or at least a definitive decision about it).

Theymos' silence and the fact that The Pharmacist is still The Pharmacist tells you what the admin's decision is. Not speaking means no, you can't get a name change. I have gotten used to seeing The Pharmacist and his merit cycling avatar. I imagine I would be very confused if a different username and maybe with another avatar suddenly appeared and I had no idea who it is.

But if it helps, c'mon theymos just grant the guy his wish.

I imagine I would be very confused if a different username and maybe with another avatar suddenly appeared and I had no idea who it is.

Wouldn't that be wild, though?  If I'm not mistaken, I've seen it happen a couple of times since I've been a member here.  Didn't OmegaStarScream originally have a different username?  There was another moderator too, I think. 

And yeah, I've pretty much resigned myself to remaining with my current moniker forever.  Eh.  I could have problems much worse than having my request denied by Theymos.

Thanks to you and PowerGlove for your support.  I doubt any support, however strong, is going to sway Theymos's decision though--but it can't hurt, right?

Never say never, maybe he will grant you the change as a Christmas present this year!

PS. I also support the name change.

Have you considered asking for a Custom Title instead? Those have been granted too.

No, I've never even considered considering asking for one, because I thought you had to be either a staff member or a donator to get one.  Do you know who's been granted one and under what circumstances?  It's not like I've done anything spectacular to earn one of those, and it seems to me that if Theymos is silently giving me the finger in response to a name change, there's no reason to think that he'd bestow what amounts to something much more special than that.

Never say never, maybe he will grant you the change as a Christmas present this year!

Well, he didn't last Christmas and he had 11 months to think about it.  I'm trying to internalize your optimism and hopefulness, but my brain keeps rejecting it, like an organ transplant failure. 

[BitcoinGirl.Club]

Theymos, don't grant his wish. I like it as The Pharmacist. Good luck 🤣

To be honest in my case, he responded pretty quick and changed it. I don't see anything not to grant your wish. I will be guessing my main man is busy with other things and did not notice your request yet.

I (again) can't find back the thread, but from what I remember you'll just have to be a valued user and ask nicely. Or pass away, and someone else has to ask, but let's not go to such extremes yet.

I have seen name change applications be successful, it is unfortunate your application did not succeed.

As NeuroticFish stated, maybe Christmas will have the desired effect on theymos and you will receive your present. Just another 8 weeks to go and if that failed it will be an extra week before a new years change of might do it

As a one who has been though the process, I can give you an advance to contact Cyrus instead.
For me it took a couple of days.

I think it's a bit unfair that one dude got chance to change his name twice, while this request is ignored (same like Pmalek's 30 questions for theymos )
Anyway, even if you'll change name, you still will be The Pharmacist for me, same like TheBeardedBaby is still iasenko in my head. I'm and some other people have such habbit when some company, shop, restaurant or whatever change their name, we still calling them with old one. Especially if old version is shorter or easier to remember.

Theymos, don't grant his wish. I like it as The Pharmacist. Good luck 🤣

Maybe theymos don't like new username of The Pharmacist and prefer current one and this is why he don't change it

If theymos accept this request and make the requested change, so The Pharmacist becomes The Sceptical Chymist, Can I ask for a change of username from examplens to The Pharmacist? then it will be free and sound good, why not... 

here I also support this request (not because of what is written above) if anywhere counts. When registering, many of us had no idea how far all this and our participation in the forum would go. It is understandable to want to change your username after a few years.

[JollyGood]

Well that settles it then but are we really ready to call him The Sceptical Chymist after all these years of being used to The Pharmacist?

The OP should go down the Cyrus route instead and not spend any more than the 11 months already spent in waiting for an answer because the advice from someone who has been through the process seems best.

No, it will.... that's for sure, -- to an extent though -- It will cus you've seen a couple of peeps passin' through the same  process and yours seems like lighting up a cold, dampy faggot... ^{hoping it poppss} but, you just need to keep it together, YEAH!
Buddy, It's just gonna happen one day when everyone wakes up to see you in a new dress code....yeah. So beardedBabys' shown you to a nice option, try 'em. I totally support the name change.
_{when are we supposed to show up for a naming ceremony??? Hahahahaha}

The name; The Pharmacist is a well-known brand and a trademark that might be very difficult to forget. The Sceptical Chymist seems to have a quality historical and intellectual connotation that would suit the Pharmacist. Through The Sceptical Chymist, Robert Boyle disputed some renowned and generally accepted but faulty knowledge propounded by two celebrated scholars (Aristotle and Paracelsus). The Sceptical Chymist was an instrument to change the status quo and a pathway for the introduction of a better understanding of our environment.

The Pharmacist has been one of the members that love to see positive changes and growth in this forum. Just like Boyle, he is not scared of the consequences of pursuing a worthy course. I support that his request should be granted because his happiness means a lot to many members of this forum and he is worthy to bear The Sceptical Chymist.

Sandra!!! hope you would show up with your crew.

It might be well-known to you and some others who are always interacting with him but it's still unknown for many members on the forum. Meta, Reputation, Economics, Speculation, Bitcoin Discussion, Scam Accusations, Altcoin Discussion are used to be his all time favour boards. So anyone who are regular in some of these boards especially I will say in Meta, Economics, Reputation and Scam Accusations; they will know the name. But when you are going to local boards, gambling sections including many other part of the forum, I can tell that many users do not even have any idea of the name.

There are still a lot of members who don't even know who the admins are. How many users know who was MicGoosens?
Very little but the place we get together we know him very well.

Who is invited to the party? Furthermore, who will bring the cake and snacks as well as arrange entertainment? We cannot expect The Pharmacist to stand on the stand on the stage lapping up the applause while trying to entertain us for the whole event.

You seem full of energy, can I nominate you for the position of Party Manager because I think you will probably be a perfect fit for the role

Reading that was interesting. The articulated context alone deserves a round of applause

Theymos' silence and the fact that The Pharmacist is still The Pharmacist.   ...

Theymos was also silent when The Pharmacist requested more merits not that long ago.


Sorry bud, but perhaps it's time to lock this thread like the merit request thread was.

I have good, personal reasons for asking for this change

Perhaps it's the contradiction of "publicly" asking but not sharing your "private reasons" might be the stumbling block here?

It's the witching hour tonight, and I've come to Foxpup's cycling club meeting after a long and grueling shift at the cracker factory.  All the regulars are here.  As usual no faces can be recognized because of our masks, but the person I suspect is JollyGood won't make eye contact with me; the cigar-smoking fellow holding court before we begin the ritual sacrifice has got to be LoyceV, and there's somebody over in the corner wearing a pair of faggy effeminate bicycling shorts.  And the rest of the bunch.

About to doze off for a moment, I checked my phone and read this here post and an idea was sparked in my noggin.  Cut to the present moment:  Foxpup has been knocked off the altar, and I have pulled a Colt Python from under my robes.  It is now pointed at the head of a very cute, very meek, very furry animal and I shout: "Theymos, change my username or this here chipmunk gets it right in the temple!".  I'm not even sure that chipmunks have temples, but no matter.  If I pull the trigger, not even good ol' Dr. o_e_l_e_o would be able to sew its head back on.

So where do we stand, big T?  It's either a name change or the death of this fine forest creature, which will be on your conscience.  And trust me, I'll do it.  I haven't slept in 87 hours, might have ingested something bad, and am in no mood to negotiate.

The name; The Pharmacist is a well-known brand and a trademark that might be very difficult to forget.  

I don't subscribe to the modern-day theory that people have or are brands.  That's a millenial/zoomer generation thing they made up, like so much other stuff.

Edit:  Clock's ticking, Theymos.  Mr. Sissypants over in the corner is going to be next, and come sunrise this forum might have lost a few very good members.  And a chipmunk who says it has a wife and kids, dreams and aspirations, and is begging me not to do it.  I'm crazy man, so let's not play around here.

[Distressed chipmunk]

Lawd have mercy!!  Theymos, you better do what this man say!!  I needs to get back to mah hole an' my nuts!!

Challenge accepted.
