You have a week to decide if you want your name on the forums changed. This change will carry over to the new site when it's released. If you do want your name changed, leave your request in this thread making sure to specify what you want your new name to be. If your request is not in this thread, your name will not be changed. Next Tuesday the 13th, I will do one big sweep through this thread, making all the changes requested. This will be the last time before the new website goes up we will be changing names. When the new site is up we will have a better way to manage your identity without having to go through an admin, so if you want a change before then this is your chance.
Apologies to anyone who has messaged me about a name change and has not gotten a response. I feel guilty as I tend to be focused on one task at a time at work, so I will read name request PMs and return to work intending to respond but then I'll forget. I don't generally change names as a personal policy, that is why I'd like to give users the control over it themselves as I understand the importance of having control over your online identity. Having to go through an admin makes that difficult, especially when the only one that does it is MIA. The site is still at least a few months away though, so until then this is a good opportunity if you've been considering it.
EDIT: Please try to make sure your desired name isn't used before posting. Use this page to find out. You can use the search function there for quicker access.
