Poll: Have you ever changed your username?

[RanD00M]

The only thing I have done to it is that there used to be O's instead of 0's

 

[smithy_2045]

No, but my username here is completely different to the usernames I use elsewhere.

 

[The Hero Killer]

I never changed it on here but I changed my xbox live gamertag. It was Darkknight7989 and everybody used to always give me crap about my name being from the Nolan movie when actually it was inspired by Cecil from Final Fantasy.

 

[DirgeNovak]

Not on the Escapist, not anywhere else (except Twitter, where I now use my real name). I've been Kakulukia pretty much everywhere since 2003, but the reference is getting kind of old, so I might change it somewhere down the line.

 

[Candidus]

I've been Candidus or Candid for a long time. I'd rather forgo a community altogether than sign up under another name, so it goes without saying I'd never change.

 

[Dr. Crawver]

I only changed it once. As for the walrus, that came later

 

[GrimGrimoire]

I had no idea you could change your name, but thanks to this tread, I just have.
For well over a year now, I used to be known as "Stekepanne5" (not that I was "known", it's just a figure of speech). I've been unhappy with the name for months, and as I slowly started using GrimGrimoire/GreatGrimoire in games and on other websites, I thought it was time to change.

Now on to changing my SEN/PSN name.

 

[Secret world leader (shhh)]

When I first joined the site, I briefly operated under the guise of "seminoob22".

I grew tired of pretending to be the average layperson, and decided to reveal my true self to the world.

I kind of wish I could change my identity entirely on here, I would make myself ridiculous.

 

[StormShaun]

Yes for a fact. When I joined I was known as "shaun1788" since it was my default user name a while ago. Now I am known as "StormShaun" just because it feels more personalized for my uses.

Also it sounds much more better then my other one.

 

[Shinsei-J]

Nope,
I intend to stay Shinsei-J forever.
Well maybe if they do some inactive account purging I might go to just "Shinsei"
but it will be hard because I've gotten quite attatched to the J.

 

[RedDeadFred]

Wait... you can change your username? I rushed making my account and didn't really put any thought into my name because I just wanted to respond to a forum topic. Wakikifudge was just a random think up something ridiculous on the spot kind of name.

TIME FOR A CHANGE!

Edit: Behold! I am now RedDeadFred!

 

[RedDeadFred]

But who's ever heard... of a psychic taco?

I don't even know what I would change it too, since I'm now the new taco guy (I think. Please don't beat me with anti-stupid pill stuffed swordfishes if I'm wrong! D

NEVER CHANGE YOUR NAME!!!!

You have the greatest name of the entire forums and I envy you greatly!

 

[PsychicTaco115]

NEVER CHANGE YOUR NAME!!!!

You have the greatest name of the entire forums and I envy you greatly!

I have never heard someone say that to me before...

 

[Ham Blitz]

I haven't because since around 2008 when I made it my Xbox live Gamertag, I just kind of stuck with it. I love it enough and haven't grown tired of it, and I don't see myself doing so anytime soon.

 

[Canadamus Prime]

Nope. If I were to change it, it'd only be to add capitalization and to get rid of the underscore since I now know you can have spaces in your Escapist username which I didn't when I first signed up.

 

[Colour Scientist]

Not even once, I'm rather fond of it because I've used it for so long.

 

[Mylinkay Asdara]

I changed mine TO a user name from my real name which is what was auto-entered when I first came here and "signed in with Facebook" and I wasn't really keen on that being all over this site.
