No that's usually not done. You can reregister under a different name, but you'll lose all your points.

thats why i dont want to register again i dont wanna loose all my points. it would be alot easier if they would allow some handle editing...

Contact an admin by using the complaint button. I've seen others make the switch. You do have to re-register, but arrangements have been made in the past.

What's wrong with your handle?

ive just had a change of mind. id rather have it as mastercheif to match with my picture. i think mastercheif would be a better handle for me.

Ultimately, it's not your name that matters. It's the persona you create here that really means something. Make your name mean something.

Wouldn't it just be easier to change your avatar to match your name?

also I think there is already a member named master chief.

Are you going to want to change your name every time ,you change your avatar?
Members update there avatars and sigs all the time they are very fluid but the member name stays the same to help keep consistency.

What, don't you like my name?

Cut. I'm so cut . . .

Changing an existing user name is never allowed. You wound need to abandon your current account and re-register.

ill give you 100 ats points if you let me change myne

I'm sorry bud, the issue isn't that it would be a hassle. As I understand the board software has been highly customized by SO and won't allow the Admin to change a current members user name.

You could still give me the 100 points though.
