What's up with AF and the changing of user names? Is there a culture of changing usernames on a whim? This is was rarely done on TTA so I never needed to adapt to this. How do you keep track of who is who? How many changes do you get?

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

Pa: *Will member Joods please stop charging a "fair premium" on giving kudos back to TTA refuges*
      
      *Additionally new members will not touch the large hadron AF collider while it is creating dark matter.  Thank you*

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.

Hey, every forum needs at least one wyzas.

[Joods]

I wonder if I can eventually earn an award for having had the most username changes.  Do I need to change it more?

I will drive down there and punch you if you change it again.

I'm guessing a play on the words wise ass.
