I have a question.

We use to get to make our own usernames on Forums, but now it's what ever our avatar names are. Will we ever get to make our own username again?

I know Bvg is working on more important things, but just curious anytime in the future would it be possible that Bvg will let us pick our own Username?

Yeah, would be nice to have that option again. But, I don't mind it the way it is.

You can't. Forum account and game account are linked, if you get banned from one you are banned in the other.

I love it the way it is.
If I ever get tired of the name I have now, it can easily be changed so.
I understand where you are coming from though.

Somewhere
I can't source where...

Either Gary or Greg said that the names will stay the same
including our ID number to prevent unwanted behaviors.

It kinda keeps people honest.

So it's here to stay.

I wish we had old usernames back. I was kattana12 but use Kim/Kimberly ingame. I changed my ingame name to kattana12 for better recognition here, but it just feels weird.

I used the old forum, but very sparingly. Just curious, why is there a preference to have different ingame and forum names?

if you like a name enough to have it in one place (eg. in game) then why would you want a different one here??

This^^^.... I believe the idea behind having the same name is that now our forum account is interlinked to our game account so makes us accountable in both areas equally.

I love the way it is now. I had to come up with some stupid thing before because my name was taken. Besides, this way when I see people in Yoworld, I might recognize them from the forum!
