How do I change my user name? 'cause I can't memorize it that well.

You would have to PM an admin. And by "an admin" I mean stone, because he's the only one willing to do it. It may take some time for him to get around to it.

If the issue is just your memory, save it somewhere.
Other than that, yeah, ask stone

I'm just going to interject here and say that's not the only issue.

This bit's in invisitext because the above sentence has comic timing on its own but is ruined by explanation. The hope is that no one who understood me will highlight/quote this, but people who were about to ask "what do you mean?" will. See the level of thought I put into my posts?

A bad username which is hard to remember doesn't just affect your ability to log in. It also affects other people's ability to remember who the hell you are, and also to some extent their first impression of you. If I go into the pivot section and see that a thread is by "Pivotstick678" then I am probably not going to click on that thread. And if clawdeanekiller makes an amazing series of jokes in the Chat Thread, or publishes an animation, or becomes an admin, I am not going to remember who it was that did those things and I am not going to give him the respect he deserves. (ok, I'll probably notice if he becomes an admin)

Point being, usernames are important and his is bad.
