Right, now I have rock solid evidence.

If we want our names changing to someone's that is banned, then we can't have it - even though it's not on the members list.

HOWEVER

-legoman- has recently changed his name to 'Dan' which I know for sure was taken.

Explain.

I have nothing against -legoman- or anybody.

I just think it's majorly unfair.

Nothing to do with corruption. Hes a VIP so he gets to have a name change just as any other VIP would.

That name was taken by someone that hasnt used the forum in 3 years, so its fine :).

So how come then when people are banned and are never going to use this forum again we're not allowed to get their names?

Because we dont want the banned people having their account names back or anyone else having it because when accounts a banned ban logs are made and if we started changing their names it would get too confusing for an admin when he wants to see why a certain account was banned.

Also - 2004-2007 is 3 years :p. 7-4 = 3 :).

adam why are you being so picky? jesus christ you get his drift, stop trying to make things more difficult.

and does this mean, if we want an account name and it hasn't logged on since 2004, and has no posts, and we're vip, we are allowed a name change to it?

no, because we're not admins/smods.

The problem is that we cant do anything to make them let us change our names, We agreed to THEIR Terms and conditions, Meaning we have to abide by thier rules, fair or not.


At the end of the day its just a Name.

Aw thanks

And ---MAD--- just said he hadn't logged in for 3 years so therefore, if you want a name that hasn't logged on since 2004 go for it.

-Justin

No one, Thats just their legal shield saying "We told you to read them!" or "You agreed to it!" :l

Edit; Np Brandon you deserve a pat on the back ;)

Nobody reads them but you all agreed to them.

The new system of banning I think says you put the userid, which will avoid confusion when it comes to banning then changing names.

But it is a lot of time for a Forum Administrator to check all this.

Where in the 't&c's' does it say

'admins and smods are treated unjustice-ly whereas normal members are treated like bullshoe'.

i guess it's the way this forum is run really.

See, Look an Admin falling back on the T&C agreements. (Btw no offense you were just there ;))
