Anyone else requested/had a username change in the last month or so?

How long have you been waiting?
Or how long did you have to wait for?

Because I'm not being funny, but I've been waiting two and a half weeks for my name change and no one's been online to press the little button to accept it. It's not that much effort is it? I'm not asking for a lot here? It's the little things like that about this site that piss me off.





I'm gonna tap him like a maple tree. I'm gonna search him for some syrups. I'm gonna be having sex with him.

Two weeks! Thats ridiculous iv never waited that long when iv requested a username change. Both the staff members that have the power to do username changes are Harley and Shambles (Sophie) They are both absent.

I enjoy the fact that the two most powerful members who are essential to the proper running of this website are absent...

Harley used to have a helper for site issues. He used to call this helper his "code monkey" lol. I would say Harley should get another young code monkey but the other guy did more damage than good lol.

This must be very annoying, just like the fact that we don't have a 'like' button yet. HMPF.

Shambles and Harley are the ones who deal with this. And we get rid of spambots asap so thats not really got anything to do with people being absent.

Sorry you've had to wait so long.x

I lol'd

and I know that Spambots are getting removed quickly, its just that since they have been absent they seem to have appeared more.

although maybe spambots are getting lazy and becoming more obvious?

Harley and Shambles not being around has no effect on the spambots. We've probably just been slower on acting on getting rid of them.



Isn’t it funny how day by day nothing changes but when you look back, everything is different…

I've noticed the increase of spambots but dont think its linked to sophie and harleys absence.

A lot of the mods are at uni and currently doing exams which is slowing down the modding process at the moment I think

Sophie was deputy head for quite a while, its natural for her to move up to head, same as it was for me to move up into Heidis place.

I may cry. Like, REALLY cry and grow a fringe and weep in the corner of my room with MCR blasting from my speakers. My parents will tell me to turn it down but I won't and I'll cry more because they don't understand me and my pain. They don't understand what it's like to be an individual who dresses, thinks and acts like everybody else in my social group. That is how much this has affected my feelings! It is causing me more and more pain the longer I have to wait. I am BULLIED about my name! Severely bullied to the point I stare out of the window late at night at the moon with tears in my eyes and wonder if there is anybody out there who understands how I am feeling. Then I realise there isn't anyone. Because I am the only person on the planet who feels angst.

Although failing that, I might resign myself to the fact this will forever be my username.
