If the owner of the board can change his name (as he did when he went from his real name to handle), then certainly anyone else can...and has.

In [COLOR=#0000ff]Greek mythology[/COLOR], Thanatos (in [COLOR=#0000ff]Ancient Greek[/COLOR], θάνατος – "[COLOR=#0000ff]Death[/COLOR]") was the [COLOR=#0000ff]Daimon[/COLOR] personification of Death and Mortality. He was a minor figure in Greek mythology, often referred to but rarely appearing in person. His name is transliterated in Latin as Thanatus, but his [COLOR=#0000ff]Roman[/COLOR] equivalent was [COLOR=#0000ff]Mors[/COLOR] or Letus/Letum, and he was sometimes identified (perhaps erroneously) with [COLOR=#0000ff]Orcus[/COLOR].

Why do you keep changing your name, Drax / Thanatos / Datalyss???

Should we expect this to keep happening?

I vote if he changes it again, tribal council should vote to change him back to drax and then must approve all future changes for everyone.

It's RUBBISH. Who ever heard of a vampire called Marion! Marion is what maths teachers are called (apologies to any Marions out there, I'm sure you've grown into your name)

I'll comment.

Drax:

I like this username. Please stop changing it. It's confusing. Plus, like most of the others here, you started in my mind as Drax, and when it's different, all I do is code shift blahblahblah-->Drax. Oh, that's Drax again. You're stuck dude. Be happy with it.

I was thinking the latter. Couple other boards that I'm on have requirements for username changes to keep people from, well, doing what drax did. One requires you to pony up cash money (or paypal bit exchanges) in order to process a name change. The other one makes you go and greet 20 new members who have posted in the introduction forum.
