Can we get our name changed?
 
There's usually a thread somewhere for people to ask to get their name changed, but I don't see any. I don't recall seeing anything about name changes in the rules either (yeah, I checked).

If you want a name change, you'll have to PM Cat about it. Coming from someone who's changed their name before, you'll have to give him a real good reason why you want to change it.
It also helps if you're a new or unknown member, too. Yhe new name will also have to be close to the former name.

He's a fairly new member. I doubt his name has been changed.

What was your, shiny's, name before!?! And Tailbot, what is your plan for changing? Is there some BIG reason?

Maybe. I wanna change it to match my Youtube channel.

essentially, this. don't know about that last bit, though. admins don't usually do it unless it's a really good reason.

More well known you are, the less likely you will have a name change.

This sums it up.

I could've sworn that I've read somewhere that if you wanted to get your name changed, not only did you have to P.M Cat for a good reason, but you also had to be new or less active. And it also wouldn't help if you told people to start calling you by your new name before it's officially changed.

Well good thing I wasn't thinking of a name change anytime this century I guess.
