I presume this is the right section to post.
Anyway, after recently starting to use the forum more it's dawned on me that some people do find my current username rather offensive, so is it possible to change it a second time for the better of the community?

I don't see how it's offensive. If you haven't been hit with the hammer of judgement by a mod for it then it should be fine.

I'm not offended by this but I'm sure if you asked the staff nicely enough (and proof of people getting upset over it) they'd allow you to change it back to your old one. Not so sure about a second name change though as you know, make an exception once and you're obligated to make it again and again.

If you think that's offensive, at least yours isn't wishing death on a person you don't really want to wish death on.

Just PM a mod, I guess they can either do that, or know who you have to ask, or know of a way to transfer you account history into a new one you set up...

But yeah, if it's the second time... Avoid doing it again. Don't strain their patience.

It's offensive as it says "Rohypnol", a date rape drug, in case some of you can't see it. That's a good enough reason for a change in my opinion. I have no issues with it, but can see why others might.

Message the staff, they'll give their views on this.

Calumon: Just don't be a meanie and change it to something worse!

I don't see how it's offensive, but I guess if you ask a Mod nicely (with proof of people being offended) they might help you out

Edit: OK I see what people mean by the Date Rape, I just think it's not too offensive (could be worse)

I think your only allowed to change your name once and as far as your name is concerned i don't see any problem with it.

How's it offensive, exactly?
Rohypnol is a drug used quite commonly to sedate and rape someone. Though it still isn't that offensive, I've seen people with Satanic as well as other drug referencing user names.

Op as long as it isn't hateful to anyone and the mods haven't done anything you should be fine.

Yes how dare you wish death on my notary!
yes her name was Kira and she had a black notebook... it was hilarious.
But I don't see any problem with your name. Message a mod if you want it to be changed.

I think that the implications of date-rape are enough reason for a name change. I'd change it just to be on the safe side, but you should probably PM a mod. They actually know what they're doing, unlike myself.

Mine refers to Rastafari, which was Bob Marley's religion of choice, and his beliefs led to his death, so should I change mine too?

Some people are very touchy feely, there's nothing wrong with it.

I guess if a problem arises, you could ask a Mod about changing it again?
