Username change

P1x44r · 03-09-2009, 11:13 AM

Hi,

I'm not new to this forum but I haven't visited since 2006, so when i tried to login earlier I could not. After doing a search on my username I realized that posfix "_abx" has been added to it for some reason.

Can staff please change my username from P1x44r_abx to P1x44r please?

Thank you very much in advance!

Just an FYI- Abx was sold to crowdgather.com and they have merged their user databases. Your suffix was added because there was a user at another site with the same name. They have changed a few of the old timers back, it depends on if the other user is active or not.

Wow, I now see that you're correct. It's weird though - P1x44r is a pretty unique username and I doubt someone else used it at crowdgather.com. It certainly wasn't me though. P1x44r is there with 0 posts since 2005, so maybe I'll get lucky enough and have the _abx prefix stripped.

Oh, both P1x44r and P1x44r_abx were created at crowdgather.com on the same day!

I'm sure it was just a duplicate import attempt.

pm sanjay (owner) and ask him to change your name.
Mine had the _abx also but he changed it back for me.
