Hello, everyone.

For the past few months, the staff have been sort of debating about making changes to the restrictions and limitations on name changes. The staff want to make sure that name changes are still available, but we want to avoid confusion and prevent people from changing their name multiple times in succession or immediately changing their names back after getting the name change.

With this in mind, the staff came up with the idea of basically having members wait 3 weeks for name changes after requesting them. This is to basically make sure that members are completely set on a name before getting it changed. Note that if a good reason is given for the name change, this waiting period may be waived.

For any future name change requests, the following process will be used:

1. The member requesting the name will make a topic in the dropbox for the name change.
2. The staff will decide if the name change is to be accepted or not, and will contact the member.
3. If the name change is approved, the member will be given a date (3 weeks after the original request).
4. On or after that date, the member will need to contact a staff member and let them know that they still want that name change. This can be done via chat, PM, or dropbox.
5. The member's name will be changed.
6. If the member wants a different name, they will need to make another request.

We apologize for the inconvenience, but the staff want to make sure that name changes cause as little confusion as possible. If anyone has any questions, please let the staff know.
