It is simply too long, Claire. Did you not read the stuff that UK quoted from steet? 20 characters max, he said, almost word for word.

Conay: well... your name is 21 characters, including the underscores. You could just take out the underscores in between "White Star Line" and make it one word, but keep the capital letters so people know that it's actually three words. But, that's just me.

When I get the next chance to, I might just change it to "Conay". But just 1 character over might not be THAT bad, I feel we need to look at people with more then 30 first.

I don't care if it's long i like my name what should it matter to you if i have a long name not trying to sound rude but it is my buisness.

Well look if it's too long im still shouldn't have to change it ..it took me awhile to think of a good name and i really don't feel i should because some people don't like it.

With all do respects, it effects all of us, it cap-sizes our screen.

You have no choice in the matter. We don't care how "long" it took you to figure out how to mess everyone's screens up. It doesn't matter if you like your username or not. You're going to have to change it. It's part of the rules now. And rules are something you have to follow. It doesn't matter if you like the rules. It doesn't matter if you want to break them. If you break rules, you are punished. And right now, you're going down that road.

As UK has all ready said (and I quote this from Steet DIRECTLY)

Quote:
The new limit will be 20 characters.


Get over it. Shorten your username. Follow the rules.

@Claire:We're trying to warn ya to change it now before ya get into trouble like the banned box or worse. If ya have any common sense ya would change your name before a mod or Steet gets ya.

Claire, as I already said, your name is TO long, yes my name breaks the rules but when I get the chance i've already stated i'm changing it. Anyway, my name dosen't capsize the screen.

If it scrunches up and collapses the screen display of the forum because of YOUR name (or any other long one), it bothers me, and it affects my enjoyment of the forum. That makes it my business. You seem to presume this is personal. It is not. But I created this topic because of this issue being a problem...and not just because of you (in fact, it was the name of someone else which started this).

A sensible person would do the right thing. If you can come with a name that's a sentence long, you can certainly come up with a shorter one.


Claires name crushes my screen aswel, and I think I know who your talking about...

So i have to change it because you guys want me to and it crushes your screen.. if you don't like it then don't look at it.. i like my name and i shouldn't have to change it because a few people don't like it.. that isn't fair it really isn't. Im not trying to be mean it's just i like my name and then all of a sudden i get a complaint because a few people don't like it... i don't remeber ever bothering any of you.. so why bother me.

This is the last I am going to say about this to you, because the mods have already spoken (as has steet), and that pretty much ends it. You seem to think it's a matter of choice. It is not. They have instructed you to change it. If you don't, you'll end up having it changed by steet. And then you run the risk of drawing a warning or ban. Is it THAT important to you?

:roll:

You don't need use the rolling eyes icon on me Jersey im not stupid you know and yes im aware i can get banned but this rule is dumb and it must have been made after i changed my name or it would have said somthing.. and yeah my name is pretty important not enough to get banned but enough to defend it.. you may not like it but i can't change it... what part of that don't people understand i changed this almost a week ago and i still have a couple months even if i wanted to change it.
