Change of username

[sEpuLchEr]

Is there anyway to update my username?

It's really not much different but I realised the Capitalisation is wrong. Supposed to be sEpuLchEr not sEpuLChEr. Anyway to change that?

What's the deal about the capitalization? Why not make a new account with the name spelled "Sepulchre"? That's an alternative way of spelling!

afaik donator status allows you to change your username?
but i dont know how much you'll have to pay for it these days - used to be 50btc

[Vortex20000]

It's still 50 BTC

[Superhitech]

50 is for vip, 10 is for donator

but dang, at current price 50 btc is ~19,000 USD

10 is ~3,000 USD

Wow those people who donate must have a lot of btc

Donator status does not allow you to change your username, and the price to become a donator is 10 BTC.

If you were to donate 50 BTC to the forum then you would become a VIP and could change his username.

If the username is already taken then even a VIP account would not be able to help the OP

I'm just waiting to see how many more posts we get before people notice I changed it.

I don't typically do it but it's the same name, just capitalization that changed, no biggie.

I guess another way to change your username is to become an administrator.

(I did notice that you added a custom title)

EDIT: According to this thread your username was capitalized the same back in August.

I'm new and improved.

Can only administrators create a custom title or can lower level mods/staff do so as well? (I know that VIPs also have this ability)

[BadBear]

Global moderators can change their own name and title.
Staff (moderators, patrollers) can change their own name, but not title.

So there are ways to change your name without shelling out 50 BTC (plus staff apparently has access to the donator section as well). Maybe I should try to step up my reporting "game" a little bit

Told you it would probably be easier that way than just trying to buy a donator account  .

IIRC you had ~1500 reported posts with a 97% accuracy rate when you were promoted verses the ~190 posts with a 91% accuracy rate (although a good number of my "bad" reports was the result of someone else's misunderstanding of when certain posts should be deleted). Assuming that a staff position is guaranteed after 1500 reports (it is not) and that it takes 60 seconds to find and make a report then it would take ~1200 minutes, or ~20 hours. Assuming my time is worth ~$20 per hour then this would "cost" ~$400 or ~1 BTC.

I recently had the opportunity to buy a donator account for <.5 BTC but couldn't because I didn't accept the sellers offer before he sold the account to someone else, so it may be cheaper to buy a donator account, but then again earning a staff account would result in some level of income from their work.

91% is perfectly fine and you don't need to report as many posts as I did as I'm probably an extreme case. Most of the other mods only seem to have had a few hundred reports before they got asked. I also think your calculations are way off as well. Reporting a post takes probably less than ten seconds. If you spend a decent amount of time at this site (which you seem to do) then it's pretty easy to just report posts as you come across them via your normal active browsing and you don't exactly have to 'hunt' them out.

I guess that 60 seconds might be a little high, but I think that 10 seconds is probably low as well. My calculation does leave out the "cost" of shit that the staff/mods take, especially the very efficient ones (just looks at how many threads that mprep has about him). Also buying a donator account would guarantee that you have access to donator forums, while reporting lots of posts would only increase the chances of becoming staff.

I would say that the "cost" of reporting enough posts to become staff would eventually decline to zero if you stay staff long enough as you would get a portion of 25% of ad revenue plus the ability to participate in PD
