--- Quote from: Azure Lazuline on February 17, 2011, 03:23:54 PM ---One small suggestion: If someone's displayed name is the same as their nickname, it seems weird/awkward to have both shown beside each post. I think this is a cool idea overall, though, and is a great way to keep changeable display names without it getting out of hand. --- End quote --- There's no easy way for me to check if they both match, so it'll have to be for now. |

This is probably going to feel awkward for a few posts, as I haven't used a separate name anywhere since the summer of 2007 when I assumed the name *fakeremoved for security reasons* on the Internet for the first time. Right now I'm nicknaming myself as my main in MUGEN (even though I haven't uploaded a vid of it in months and am basically retired as far as that's concerned). Hopefully I can think of something better before the deadline, as it seems silly to have a name that sounds like the Touhou equivalent to Master Hand on a Touhou forum and an RP account to anyone who knows about Dragon Claw. I was actually going to do this in a MUGEN forum as an April Fool's joke, but decided not to. If anyone cares, this is the image I'm using (I tried to upload it to Danbooru long ago, but it went unapproved). Anyway, would it be risky to put my YouTube account in the URL field due to a match with my username? |

I would recommend against it. But to be honest the risk of someone coming through, making 10 posts, just to harvest URLs/IM names to attempt logins is very low. We can just change your username (what you log into the forums with) to something random but memorable for you if you're really worried though. Then you can have your nickname/display name be whatever you want. |

This is great! Now I can change my display name when I get a new avatar without fear of becoming unrecognizable :D |
