Congratulations to you The Pharma... The Sceptical Chymist !

As for the Nigerian Board we believe theymos is seriously making plans to seeing he allocate a board to Nigerians.

I hope you get one, and take heed of what I wrote above; he says (and I'm paraphrasing here) that he tends to forget about requests if he isn't reminded of them, so be persistent....and obviously patient, too.

We'd take this as a lesson, I know we've been patient enough, but maybe what we need now is to keep sending reminders since it's been almost a year since our leader made a formal request to Theymos, and the last person to respond to our request was Cyrus when we asked for the thread to be pinned.

ed for more visibilities and we got that instantly. i believe we are on the right path.
It is forbidden, just like Satoshi, to avoid impersonation. It is no longer available.

Obviously for personal reasons rather than aesthetics... It sounds like you're now a professional sewage tank cleaner, previously you were an old school LSD manufacturer or Xanax reseller, which were way cooler. To each their own...

Out of curiosity, i tried registering using "The Pharmacist" and:

That's because theymos has only changed the display name. The username hasn't been changed.
For more information read the post made by theymos before.

Thank you, and thanks to everyone who's PMed me with congratulations.  I have to admit it's weird seeing a different username on my profile, but I'll get used to it and am grateful to Theymos for granting me my wish.

I will really miss the name "The Pharmacist" which has now changed to "TSC". This new name is long, but I think I prefer to use his last name instead of his full name and I hope you don't mind that. Chymist, I have congratulated you via PM but it seems I would love to celebrate here too.

I also recently noticed that one of our board local users had successfully changed their username. Theymos is probably being kind and granting some user requests, of course because the reason for changes may be perfectly acceptable.

[Hispo]

Well, congratulations to The Sceptical Chymist for the new name, I personally liked the previous one, but that is just my opinion.
I have the impression that the administration takes care of the name change requests rather slowly, I had assumed The Sceptical Chymist had already changed their mind on their name change request, after the time It took to get an answer.

I believe it would be productive to set a minimum-maximum waiting time to get an official reply from moderators on name change requests and ban appeals, not matter whether the request is accepted of denied.

Just my opinion.

[NdaMk]

The Sceptical Chymist deserves congratulations. I never expected the request to change his username to take so long, given his reputation and the amount of effort he has put into the forum. I like his new name because of his personality in the forum; he always does things skeptically here, so even his new name. I aspire to be like him in the forum; he's simply too exceptional in his own ways. We've all seen and appreciate everything he's done and continues to do here. All the best to The Sceptical Chymist.

No results when i put in "The Sceptical Chynist", but this appears when i search with the string "The Pharmacist" .

reminds me of L***a , L***aM

[OgNasty]

Looks like you don't have to re-ignore users when they change their username.  Sweet.   

[hosseinimr93]

No results when i put in "The Sceptical Chynist",

That's because you should search for "The Sceptical Chymist", not The Sceptical Chynist.
If you search for "The Sceptical Chymist" and click on the result, you will see that the message is sent to "The Pharmacist".

[Sebas.tian]

Congratulations The sceptical chymist for the new achievement, there is a proverb that say good name is better than richest, I came to discovered that this your new name is a name people will live to remember, because "Sceptical" mean doubting that something is true or useful. No doubt you really deserved this honor, once again congratulation The sceptical chymist.

[LoyceV]

It's Chymist, not Chynist And that's the problem with the new name: it's going to take me a very long time to remember it exactly.

Obsolete spelling of chemist.

As a non-native English speaker, I had no idea.

[Agbe]

I even told him that he may get the name change granted as Christmas present.

Who said that theymos cannot be kind?

Your prediction has come to pass. Really, it was a nice Christmas gift from the overall boss to the sceptical Chymist. Delay is not a denial.

As for the Nigerian Board we believe theymos is seriously making plans to seeing he allocate a board to Nigerians.

That is the prayer the Nigerians are making, the day when theymos will create the board, there will be a very big jubilation in the forum, just the day of independent.

@The Pharmacist - We will miss you.  

Really The Pharmacist is easy to pronounce than the Sceptical Chymist. I almost bite my tongue when trying to pronounce the name.

Is the "The Pharmacist" vacant now?  

The name is not vacant, the name is still using by The Sceptical Chymist as the username and it is only the display name changed to the The Sceptical Chymist. The username is intact.

No.  That one was rejected out of hand, and I accept it.

Well we thank God for everything, but granting you that would have helped the forum massively.

I voted for you because I saw the protagonist in you, and it is only metaphysics scholars understand it.

Just few days ago I was talking about The Skeptical Chemist on bitcointalk as a keyword and using it as example to make a point of how keywords works for search engines. I thought TP was asking for a Chemist not Chymist LOL. But I see it was a cleaver idea from former TP 😉

Obsolete spelling of chemist.

As a non-native English speaker, I had no idea.

I think it's how you pronounce it.
Chemist will start with "K"
Chymist no doubt is starting with "Ch"

[Asiska02]

I remember seeing something about this name changing someplace before now. Seriously, given his status on this forum, I never thought it to take so long. I love the new name, which has been changed from The Pharmacist to The Sceptical Chymist. Congratulations once more; your requests should have been fulfilled much sooner. But the wait was worthwhile now that you have what you desired.

Sceptical -> Skeptical
Chynist -> Chymist

A big thanks to theymos for acknowledging the request, it is a win for The Pharmacist - Now The Sceptical Chymist and every user that supported and joined in appealing to theymos to grant the request, shows indeed that request delayed is not denial.
Congratulations and welcome The Sceptical Chymist <--
Goodbye The Pharmacist -->

Nigerian Board is also on the request Queue...we also appeal to him for the creation of the board

Yeah, this would win Bitcointalk event of the year if theymos can make it happen for us before the year 2022 comes to an end...
We and hopefully and never loosing faith, and we never gon' stop pushing - praying until something happens.

[nakamura12]

Honestly, I am confused about who that forum user or that person is because of the name that I recently saw or knew until I have known that it is The Pharmacist. Changing the forum name is possible but as you have known that you must have boss theymos' approval then theymos will change the name. As I have know before that there are other people who wanted to change their name but it didn't get approved that's why the approval of changing the forum name depends on theymos himself. Congratulations to The Pharmacist The Sceptical Cymist

Out of curiosity, i tried registering using "The Pharmacist" and:

That is not possible because only the name is changed and not the username. When you register or create an account and what you have filled up will be your username and forum name so, when you try to create an account using The Pharmacist then that's what will happen because the username "The Pharmacist" is already used. What really changed is the name and not the username itself. See  the image below.

It's called appreciation and respect.
Loling for calling theymos our boss in OP.🤣
