changing a username

[xxTurbonium]

Is there a limit to the number of times a username can be changed?

I tried searching for an answer before posting, but couldn't find one. Apologies if it's already been answered somewhere.

Depends how much the mods like you and if they are bored enough.

Is that the official answer, or are you just being comical? 😛

A bit of both. 😉

Last I checked there is no official amount but they tend not to do it that often.

Which of the mods is the nicest and/or most bored, typically? 🙂

No, there is not a limit in the rules but we will not let you change your name willy-nilly.

We will also not let you change you username if you just recently had a change.

And understandably so.

I asked just to confirm your policy, as I have been on forums where only one username change is allowed - ever.

Change your name all you want, that will not stop them from finding the bodies.

Bodies are linked to your DNA records.
