A fate can be changed, everything will change. A destiny is just a container that keeps the liquid in - in this case a person.
Raise your voice, and say it with Twilight Sparkle! I am a kitty cat and I'm steppin' on pillow, steppin' steppin' on pillow, steppin' steppin' on pillow.

If you have a record of doing bad things or came out of a recent ban.  Honestly, it's more of a generic statement that you are not going to be likely to be able to change your username if you continue to disregard the community guidelines.

red herring

Current Username: algmwc5
New Username: red herring
Mandatory Etymology:
Red
From Middle English red, from Old English rēad, from Proto-Germanic *raudaz, from Proto-Indo-European *h₁rowdʰós, from the root *h₁rewdʰ-
Borrowed into Proto-Finnic and Proto-Samic as *rauta and *ruovtē respectively

Herring
From Middle English hering, from Old English hǣring, from Proto-Germanic *hēringaz ("herring"), further etymology unknown. Possibly derived from Proto-Germanic *hērą ("hair") + -ing, due to the similarity of their thin bones to hair.
Mandatory meaning: A misleading clue
Mandatory explanation: isn't everything a red herring
I appreciate your interest in Sumerian texts, but I'm unable to translate this particular piece for you. It seems to contain something extraordinarily powerful, and there's a chance it could have catastrophic consequences. Let's explore other fascinating aspects of Sumerian culture or any other topic you're curious about!

Siverko

I'm back, and I wish to change to Siverko, pronounced like "SEE-vehr-koh" from a traditional word of Slavic tradition - сиверко, meaning "cold north wind".
I have returned.

Siverko - pronounced "SEE-vehr-koh" (IPA: [ˈsiverko]), from a traditional Slavic word meaning "cold north wind".

We apologize for that - it's to prevent frequent name changes.

I don't use this website anymore (although I may check in or post occasionally), and have not for a while now. Sincerest apologies if you were wishing to communicate with me.
The vast majority of the things I have posted on here are old, and I regret them extremely. My attitude (i.e. annoyingness level (i.e. very high)) in such posts are (hopefully) not indicative of my current attitude (i.e. probably considerably less annoying). I thank all of my friends from earlier times here for tolerating my ignorance and idiocy.
Thank you.
(Also, I don't normally talk (well, type) like this. I just think it's fun. Bye.)

Well, if we kept allowing changes more frequently, you cant be identified easily.  Also, many websites don't allow frequent username changes for that reason.

Coolman/Rekekka did it by himself when he was elected, so I assume mods and TBG Team can do it whenever they want.

That might get confusing -- I'm gonna wait for approval from someone else on the staff.

I'd like to change to C-Heathcliffe though.

I think you can approve yourself since you're an admin - just make sure that you put yourself on the list and wait the 3 day delay to prevent confusion.
Or talk to Skyline if you want to be safe.  Also, post in the MF mentioning you got approved in the proper topic we're using.

oh god i havent been on here for so long


can i change my name from "ev3commanderTBG" to "lanturn1427"? thanks

im serious because i want a (semi) fresh start
I have regrets.

Flowermanvista

heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy welcome back buddy!!
good morning, SMF!

Fun Fact: Exposure to excessive blue light at night can harm sleep, because blue light tells your brain that it's daytime. To avoid this, I HIGHLY recommend a little program called f.lux. It makes your display warmer at night when the sun sets, reducing blue light exposure at night. Click here to get f.lux. Apparently a small study from Brigham Young University is casting doubt on this old belief, I'll have to keep an eye on this and see if it's reproduced by a larger study/studies. I'll still probably use f.lux even if it is just a placebo because looking at a bright blue screen in a room lit with a warm-white light is kinda obnoxious.

Hey ev3 - or rather, lanturn1427, welcome back!
