Thanks for the reply, but i that is not the problem, i can wait 90 days.

my problem is i cant input ps! in "Change Display Name" in control panel. Everytime i input " ! " i get " 33 " as a output display name.

That would be my fault probably. I didn't add the code to Neowin, but I did create it. :shiftyninja:

I will check my code later tonight. :)

I'm trying to change my display name, but it says my password is wrong even though I know it's the correct password. Seeing as I'm logged in fine. That and it shows a green check mark next to enter display name when I type in my pw meaning the pw is correct and I should be able to change my display name.

Can you please fix? And by the way I've never changed my display name and it says I can change it twice in 90 days so it should work as expected, but it's not.

Thanks,

Will

Double-check your password. The green checkmark means the name is available, not that your password works. Logout and back in again to make sure.

Been there done that. If pw was wrong I would not be logged in right now. :(

Can admin change my display name for me to war59312. Without a warning, seeing as it's not my fault?

war59312 was a previous member that was banned. We will have to look into this.

Keldyn was a moderator for a long time, and that account shows all of the same info as the current one you have, like your ICQ and AIM identities. How could it not be you? :blink:

It was was my account. I ment it was not me who posted. Someone got into my account back then. I was not even online. I just thought the account had been deleted because I had asked 3 years ago and never had gotten a response. And was just easier to create a new account. But like I said it's not a big deal or anything...

And sam please grow up, no one was owned as you put it. Kids these days... and I do not mean you ok...Its just I'm sick of everyone saying owned all the time...its old and lame!

Just wanted to ask a quick question regarding display name changes.

When I first signed up with Neowin I used sixnine:design. Not long ago I changed my display name to Special K. I then tried to change it back to sixnine:design, but for some reason the : symbol is missing.

Is there any reason for this?? I didn't think the : symbol was a special character.

Basically I would just like my display back to it's original state which is sixnine:design.

Thanks in advance.
