Name Change

Hey guys, was just wondering how I would go about getting a name change. I made this silly ass generic name real quick a couple months ago because I just needed to buy some real quick 07. I since have gained close to 30 vouches because I have found this to be an awesome forums with a really active market, that I'd like to continue to use. I will keep using this forums either way, I was just wondering how I could go about getting a name change if I'm even eligible for one. Do I need to donate before I can ask? Is it time based? Please help.

@runelive123 since you're not a donor you won't be able to read that thread, I've copied the requirements and process below

Those eligible for a minor name change request are those who:

• Have donated a minimum of 5$
• Have a join date which dates to at least a year prior to their name change request
• Have 2FA enabled at the time of their request and pass an IP check (To enable 2FA visit http://www.sythe.org/twofactor.php and for a guide see: here.)
• Have not previously changed their name via the minor name change system
• Must not have been pardoned within 6 months of requesting the name change.

Those eligible for a major name change request are those who:

• Have donated a minimum of $200
• Have a join date which dates to at least two years prior to their name change request.
• Have 2FA enabled at the time of their request and pass an IP check (To enable 2FA visit http://www.sythe.org/twofactor.php and for a guide see: here.)
• Have not previously changed their name via the name change system
• Must pass a staff lounge poll
• Must not have been pardoned within 6 months of requesting the name change.
• Will be given a User Title linking back to your old name for anywhere between 6-12 months.

NOTE: We can in rare cases deny a request without reasoning.

Username change requests we currently discuss/vote on:

2. Replacement of a number in a name (Example: N4m3 to Name)
3. Removal of characters such as underscores or hyphens where the alternative is available (Example: User_Name to User Name or UserName)

How to apply for a username change:

• You fill out a Name Change Request Form below.
• An Administrator reviews your request and if it fulfils requirements:
  • If you fall under honourable name change request number 1, 2, 3 or 4 above, your request will usually be honoured.
  • If you fall under honourable name change request number 5, 6, 7, or 8 your request will be reviewed by staff and need a majority approval. This will take a week.
