    You were the first user whose name I have changed, so I didn't realize the system would automatically change your custom title to "Previously Worthington."

    Nor did I notice that had happened until you pointed it out.

    Now that you pointed it out, I've changed it back to the standard "Jedi Youngling."

    I think it’s there just for users who have posted more frequently and decide to change their name. I think @Dark Ferus had over ten thousand posts by the time he changed his username. Although in your case it doesn’t really matter as almost no one has gotten to know you yet. I hope we do soon though. :)

    It started doing that “previously ______” username thing automatically with a software update a couple years ago or so. If I recall correctly there’s a box that can be unchecked on that page in the ACP to stop that and make it use the default instead.

    Well I apologize for making a mountain out of a mole hill @devilinthedetails. Thank you for the name change and thank you for clarifying the situation. You did an awesome job, truly.

    I hope I can get to know you guys as well. :)

    Let's not do this on a "maybe". If you want to be reborn as Jedi Master Frizzy, be certain.

    Can I get a name change to Pal please? I use that name more frequently on SW boards now, changing to be consistent with other places. Thanks!

    The username @Pal is already spoken for. Can you think of a similar variant you would think could work for you?

    I swear I checked! I don’t know how I missed that. Funny they created their account a few days before me, too. I will just leave as is for now, but thank you for the response.

    If you think of a variant, we can revisit this at any time.
