Or you could be a boring, unimaginative individual and just make something using your first name...

FTE could do it to where if the guys change name it should say "new name" and then under it "formerly known as Prince" None of them will change it.
I don't believe the VB software FTE uses can be set up for users to change their own username, it can only be done by an admin (mods and supermods can't even do it.)

Even if it could, can you imagine the mass confusion that would rein on this site? With so many users, we'd have some folks changing their usernames all the time and nobody would know who anyone was...

LOL gomarsmom...no i dont name my kids weird names. Gomar is my horse.

I am on just about as of today, 65-70 sites (registered on all) and only repeat my username four times. Iammoose, MooseIam, thegreatmoose, sexymoose, goosethemoose, horsemom, toplessnissanchic, canyonaro, plus many more. Have a diff password for each.

It is a pain if people change because I hate sneaks and cons and usually when someone changes their nic there is some sneakiness going on. Some will do it for legit reasons but others will do it to be in stealth lurker mode. I do not ever nor have i used two names on one site. But many do. Some girls on a site i belong to pretended to be guys. They got women to send them nekkid pics and videos and then posted them in various areas.

I used to be someone else on here years ago. But i could not get logged in at all and no help was working so i had to change nic and start over.
