Username Change?

Ok, I like my name, but I want a username change. I have some ideas, but I want to know if it can be done.

Re: Username Change?

The only way is to make a new account, you can transport your projects by remixing or if you have them, just simply uploading again. Lots of users make new accounts, some don´t transport their projects.  smile

Well you do not have to start over, you could maybe make a project saying that you have a new account.  smile

EDIT: I just had a look at your projects! Wow you really had a good start!  big_smile

Re: Username Change?

If someone could change their username, it would be too hard for the community to keep track of who was who.  You really wouldn't be responsible for anything you did.  You username lets people know who is saying/doing what.

222 views? I've been using Scratch for almost three years and I get 20 views per project on my best ones!

It is impossible to change your username, and everyone likes a party guy.


Ask me what I'm doing, wait an hour than roll a die, if it's 4-6, I'm playing Skyrim, if it's 1, I'm eating, if it's 2-3 I'm programming.

Oh, for one thing, "gaiz" means "guys"... not... what you were thinking of. And I'm not gonna make a new account because I've decided I like where my account is now.

Re: Username Change?

Yup, it's impossible to change your username. By the way, I saw your projects before and I think I even added your first one to the SDS gallery! They are all awesome  smile

Re: Username Change?

Unfortunately, name changes aren't possible; it would take far too long to modify every single page you've ever posted in. Believe me, if it were possible, I'd be the first to change  tongue

I really hate my username,but there's no way I'm making another account. This username goes back to the time when I was so obsessed with Pokemon, it was the only thing I ever talked about. *sigh* now I regret it  big_smile

No problem  big_smile  lol.

Also, RedRocker, I actually tried that name when I signed up. It's sorta everywhere, just like the name partyman, so having it is sorta lucky  tongue
