Mods don't do name changes, Admins do. I read a similar post where Meathead1234 replied that name changes for purely cosmetic reasons won't be approved - it would have to have a valid reason, like a security issue.

201 - 250 close enough
lets face it the request is kinda lame
i could understand it if it was a high post
member or something related to a product
but this sveinjoe to this svein joe
1 space makes no difference. ide hate to be
the mod who said yes in a post then woke up
the next day to find his inbox full from every newbie
who thought yeh, i fancy 1 space in my name as well

Step 1. PM a mod and ask for PayPal address.
Step 2. Give them $20-$50.
Step 3. Ask for them to edit your name.

You're not even JR VIP... I mean, really?

You have to be a Jr Vip to have your username changed.

Once you are one you then send an email to [email protected] and that is handled inside the confines of the BHW offices.

Asked and answered.
