Often, newbies will get in touch with us to say that they want to change their username within in days (or even sometimes hours) of setting up their BHW account.

Once you've started posting on your account, you can’t change your username until you become a Premium Member or a Jr VIP, and you can only change your username once a year. We put this rule in place for a number of reasons, but it’s basically to protect our users from spammers, previously banned members and people who have bought accounts and are up to no good. If you are a Jr VIP, Premium Member or Marketplace Seller, you can request a username change by https://support.blackhatworld.com/.

So the lesson is: think long and hard about your username before you go with it, because you’re going to be stuck with it until you upgrade your membership. Don't get caught out by https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/how-to-sign-up-to-bhw.1042178/ - the field says 'Name' but it means the username for the account, not your real name.

Thanks you for important notification
 
Glad I didn't use my original name when the signup form asking for name lol. You should change the name to username, as it confuses the first-time user and they can't really change it until they become Jr. VIP.
 
im happy to know that i can change my username...good information.
 
Like, it's come to my attention that I made a mistake when I wrote this (whoopsies!!!!)

You can change your username as a non-paid member if your account is less than a week old. It's so like those of you who made mistakes in the username by using your real name or something can fix that without creating a new account.

It's been updated!! Ta!!!!

If you just created your account in the last week and you made a mistake with your username, you're allowed to change it regardless of membership level. However, after that, you can’t change your username until you become a Premium Member or a Jr VIP, and you can only change your username once a year. We put this rule in place for a number of reasons, but it’s basically to protect our users from spammers, previously banned members and people who have bought accounts and are up to no good. If you are a Jr VIP, Premium Member or Marketplace Seller, you can request a username change by contacting support.

Hi @Jane9999

You can only change your username once per year if you are a Jr. VIP, Premium Member, or Marketplace seller.

If the username is already taken and not available, please request an alternative username.

Please check the availability of your username change here: Register | BlackHatWorld

Please note that usernames are case-sensitive, so send it to us exactly how you want it to display (e.g., @UserName141334).

Additionally, all usernames must abide by our terms of service, which can be found here: https://www.blackhatworld.com/help/terms/
