Can't Change My Forum Name!
« on: February 02, 2014, 05:36:33 am »
I want to change my forum name but it won't let me! I've tried my name dozens of times and it still won't work! Here is the text when I enter the name I want.

"The username you tried to use contains the reserved name ' '. Please try another username."

Try logging off and log in again, or try a different forum name, at least to try.

The message yer receivin' indicates that another Feralheart user here on the forums already has said name that yer wantin' displayed as their own. The forums here are set up to where nobody can have the same display name. At least that's how I've come to perceive it to be. Like the message says, try addin' a unique symbol to the name or choose a shorter version of it similar to a nickname. It's not that ye' cannot change yer display name but more so the display name ye' wish to change to has already been taken.

Normally ye' can add symbols such as that to yer display name. Like Shenidan has stated before me, try loggin' out and log back in. If said problem still continues even then, I'd contact a staff member and get some additional advice from them.
My apologies for the misfortune that burdens ye'. I wish ye' luck in gettin' it concluded soon.
