Outdated validation code on our end. Could you please try again? It should be fixed now.

You know what I don't like, that you guys allowed people to change their handles, most Veterans seem alien to me. And I'm sure I'd recognize some of them. Or am I imagining things?

Heh, mind if I link to your post when people ask why we're stingy with name changes? 
It's been an option for a while, and some people use it for legitimate security purposes. We do impose a small fee to try and prevent frivolous use of the functionality. It's a balancing act and we try to accommodate everyone as best we can.

No, go for it. I think you should just ban it totally. If people want security they should delete their account and start over. Not this fucking hiding thing. I think I remember a time when Off-Topic went wild with name changes, those crazy fuckers... 
Do you happen to have a list with all the old names somewhere? 
Maybe I should start a thread in the veteran's lounge and ask people to pm me their old names.

I know I've said some crazy things here in the past, I've been crazy in the past! I know anyone with sufficient interest in me will be able to connect my handle to my real name. But fuck it, I don't want to hide that bad. If people have that much interest in me, and don't just ask me, they are the fucked up ones.
I've had this stupid nickname since I had to think of one when I first used IRC when I was 12 or something. But then again, I have had my birth name for 30 years and I don't go changing that every time my philosophy of life or my attitude changes.

I'll just keep on ranting if you don't mind. Unless you live in a fucked up country where you truly have to, I think we shouldn't live in such fear that we have disconnect our ideas from our public identity. That's almost as fucked up as guys pretending to be girls online, maybe more so. If we have to keep living with this fear then totalitarianism is winning, or at least we're at a stalemate.

That's been mentioned multiple times.
-------------------- You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers
