You can change your user name up to once a year (365 days), unless there are exigent circumstances. For three months following a name change, the forum displays your prior name beneath the new one in order to give people time to adjust to the new name. In addition, you can go to a user's profile and where it says "username changes," click on the number, and it will give you a list of that user's prior user names.

Jorm pretty much hit the nail on the head, though your old username is displayed for 6 months above your posts.

Here's an example of a username log: https://atheistforums.org/misc.php?actio...y&uid=2197

What happens when I touch the large hadron collider while it's creating dark matter? Will I gain powers that let me utilize the speed force? Will it explode in a shower of dark matter and eliminate my enemies? You can't just say not to touch it, because now I am too curious what will happen when I touch the LHC...

*slowly reaches hand toward the LHC*

(Also, worth pointing out that twice while trying to type hadron, I nearly misspelled it as hardon, and my curiosity is taking me to dangerous places again... so I had to use the acronym instead)

Ist salonfähig, ja.
