Is there anyway to change your name?

Question

pooja195 · Answer

No because it messes with the tagging feature and would glitch up the system

darthvader2900 · Answer

Nope. You have to make a new account.

horsegirl27 · Answer

You're stuck with your username, as making multiple counts is against the CoC and, as pooja said, it would glitch up the system.

darthvader2900 · Answer

@horsegirl27 One person has 500+ accounts.

horsegirl27 · Answer

jay?

darthvader2900 · Answer

I forget his username..

horsegirl27 · Answer

Probably jay. (jaynator)

darthvader2900 · Answer

No it wasn't jay.

darthvader2900 · Answer

At least I don't think.

pooja195 · Answer

I have multiple accounts.

horsegirl27 · Answer

You really shouldn't have multiple. Only mods and ambi's have permission to make an alternate account.

darthvader2900 · Answer

As do I.

horsegirl27 · Answer

And pooja, for you it makes sense

pooja195 · Answer

Preetha even knows about those. @horsegirl27  i dont think anyone cares as long as it is not being abused.

horsegirl27 · Answer

Yeah.

darthvader2900 · Answer

I have 2 other accounts besides this one. That's it.

horsegirl27 · Answer

I worked hard to raise my SS and it's only at 71..... a few days ago it was at 72!!!!!!!!

Anyway, I don't need to start over with that XD
How is my SS lower???

darthvader2900 · Answer

Did you get warned, or suspended?

horsegirl27 · Answer

No. Have just answered some questions,  and done ambi training since it went up to 72...

darthvader2900 · Answer

Oh, then I don't know.

horsegirl27 · Answer

That's so weird.

eclipsedstar · Answer

Well, then probably some posts you commented in were deleted, or people unfanned you...there are multiple reasons why.

horsegirl27 · Answer

that is really weird.

darthvader2900 · Answer

Or people took away your medals..

Hi, 

The realistic answer is, "no," however, the technical aspect is, "yes." While, yes, you can change your name (and I put a lot of emphasis on "can"), it would require administrators to change every ID (a marker for your information), which would be extremely painstaking. Even one mistake could result in a loss of SmartScore for you and everyone you've talked to. It's a risky operation (heh) and has never been attempted. 

Once you created your account, you're done. That's it. If you are disatisfied with your account name, then simply make a new one. :)

darthvader2900 · Answer

That is what I said. If you don't like your user name, @10115658 then make a new one. I don't think it is against the CoC.

darthvader2900 · Answer

If it is, I never saw the rule..
