About Changing Member Name

[CoolMac]

I see that KrackHead2k has changed his name more than once.
Let us say that this isn't availible for normal members?

Krackhead requested 7th to change his name. Only admins can change the name. If you want to just pm him :)

i see

anyways i was just curious :lol:

Did you know that everytime a name is changed it uses quite a few queries to change each of his/her posts? And that name-changing is discouraged?

Yet threads are still locked for getting to big.

Makes you think.

I would guess, things that can be avoided are avoided :)

that would make the forum on general slower

If you have a substantial number of posts, it's probably a good idea to start a new account rather than get an account name change :)

If name changes are requested I check a users post count and process changes at non peak times.

Works best :)

yeah that's much better.
imagine the number of members changing names from the control panel.it would be a chaos
