Generally, if users already have posts, I prefer not to rename or remove them. Admittedly, this user hasn't logged in since November 2004, but I still prefer not to do it. If a user doesn't have any posts, then I am generally more flexible about things.

Well, at least one user asked me about a change yesterday, so I'll wait and see if anybody else posts in the next little while. The changes will be made relatively soon, though.

Actually... could you change mine to Dropzone (i.e. decapitalise the Z), please? That'd make it consistent with the name I use at most other places nowadays.

Hi, could you change mine to 'nicfer' (without quotes)? That's a more generic name I'm using right now.

This might well cause a bit of confusion, but I'd like to change mine to SkeedR
With the capitalization, if possible. Thanks Rudgy.

Hello,

Any chance I can change my name from 0004tom to Tom0004 ?

As I've started appearing in OTTD's IRC room, and IRC won't let names start with numbers.

Thanks 0004tom

Can you make me go by the name 'TrueBrain', to make my name the same on every service :)

If it counts though, he hasn't posted at all and he last visited just after he registered over six years ago! :) (I doubt that he would be coming back), if not then don't worry i'll stick with the current username :)

Spambots can be deleted. We didn't have many, if any, spambots in 2002, however. Also, spambots tend to have names like Lucy28395492. :P

OK, usernames have been changed at last. Those users who have had their names changed: please include a line along the lines of "Formerly known as x" in your signature, unless the change was minor (e.g., capitalisation changes).
