    Default change username?

    Hi there, is there any way to change your username? I've checked the 'user cp' but no option there.


    It would be great if this option could be incorporated .

    You will have to contact the admin (VampYre) to do that.

    VampYre is cool like this but I have a question, why? I mean it is a cool username, why change it? As for the incorporation of this into VP's forums I think it would suck and cause chaos but that is me

    Agreed. Imagine how it will be if everyone changed their usernames.

    i'm not one to change my username, i use the same username & password for almost everything, and hence, i must change my vp username as this is now my old widely used username. it would be great to have it incorporated. even if you could allow a user only one change per 12 month period or so - that will surely curb the chaos factor (which i honestly agree with 100%)!!

    Admins are allowed to do that, enabling it to the users themself is too much.

    well, i can't reach the forums from home, since my ip has been banned for like 2yrs it seems (even with a new pc during the time!?)!! So, one day i'll contact the/an admin if there's no other way! not going to hassle on my cell now to change it!

    The whole issue is that your IP ADDRESS itself is banned, not the username. So contact the admin to find out why your IP ADDRESS is banned.
