[quote=desperately_yours][quote=lariboo][quote=desperately_yours][quote=lariboo][quote=desperately_yours]Im the the lower central part of Michigan, Ionia County[/quote] Opposite sides of the mitten :* We are moving by St Clair Shores...[/quote] Ahh Detroit area[/quote] Yes, but we will be on the lake pretty much. It is a gorgeous city =) And then we go up to Marquette in the summer to a cabin and a bed and breakfast. Love it! The UP is amazingly pretty! :* I think Berrien Springs is towards your way...not sure though..lol[/quote] Im smack dab between Lansing and Grand Rapids[/quote] Yeah, see not too much help. Since I know all the cities, but still suck at directions and locations =) I went to a private boarding school in the middle of the state, Berrien is where our University is, and then I lived on this side of the state my whole life. lol. Been around it a lot, but still suck at directions. :P

Yeah, I saw Adam say on the forums for his new games that the way Neo is set up they can't change usernames or it would really, really be a lot of work. (People were ranting there when a bunch had the same thing happen last year.) I tried to find the exact post but, well, realized there were better ways to spend my time. =P

Guess it depends on the game site. *unsure* http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=atlantissix

It all depends on the site's coding, but if it were possible to just change the username without problematic consequences, they would have rather than have him change account. I'll admit I'd be quite upset too if something like this were to happen but your best bet is to remain polite with the staff, they'll be far more inclined to help accommodate you this way. Take the time to make well structured sentences while explaining your point, it will make a better impression =)

Yep. If the account is tied to the user id number (when you click my name, you'll see the url change to user/1 ) then the name can be changed. But if it's tied to the user name (Saudor), then it cannot, unless the database is altered to reflect those new changes, which is what I did when i changed this account from Dmitri to Saudor (every feature except the counter system uses user id number) too late to update the counter system though. 3000+ counters in the system now --------------------------------------------- Decorate your V2 Tent and supersize with Irisheyez Direct http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=irisheyez

And I might've helped with all this since a couple months ago I reported your username on neopets...
