    [​IMG] I changed my name from Ezellohar to Eze, the Slasher, but now nearly everywhere I go I am listed as 'Eze, and the Slasher'. Help?

    It may still list the old one on some cached pages for a while. Just leave it be and it'll all eventually change.

    The system isn't there for you to change it every week anyway. It should be done once, twice at most. It's a way to fix your name if you screwed it up upon registering, not to change it whenever you feel like it.

    [​IMG] If you changed you name every day instead of just every week you might get us all confused eventually.

    I wonder if the favorite names thread prompted you to make the change? I mean, some of the responses did say they liked Ezellohar.

    Yes, I did. I decided that my name sounded kinda silly, so I changed it to something a little more appetizing. I don't really plan on doing it again, though I'm starting to think that, for some reason, Dragon's Jewel sounds more masculine than dragonjewel13. I already have enough people thinking that I'm a guy as it is...

    Harkle: Yes.

    In the year 1993, Foxz was born (see the stupid n00b structure of that nick). I carried that nick until around year 2000-2001, when it changed to Forashi (Tora = Tiger, Shine = To die, both Japanese.. F replaced the T of Tora since that was my original nick's first letter). Foradasthar was born somewhere in the first 2 quarters of year 2002, inspired by Elminster (Foradasthar sounds more "fantasy" -like, or somthing fit for a legendary powercharacter in any case. Besides it's more unique than Forashi which was my primary goal). I changed it here now because this is more of a fantasy really than anything else. Though I still retain my nick Forashi throughout other forums and games not related to fantasy.

    To at least try and stay in topic, for me this nickchange worked perfectly. After just one day I had changed it, my nick was changed from Forashi to Foradasthar in all of my previous Sorcerer's posts as well.

    Well, actually it is Ezellohar. Just took last 6 letters off it and put ', the Slasher'. It was inspired by the fall of my 'friends'. They are gone. To the Shadow.

    Hmm, is that a hint Tal? I truly am working on making my own small contribution to the noble cause, so my gender will never again be questioned.
    And to be on-topic, I actually kinda like your name as it is now Eze. It fits you better.
