  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Real names...

Just tell people it is pronounced "Hare" :)

I think a problem is that (last I checked) people could create a new account with whatever name they wanted. This site might need to go with the DVInfo.net style that all new accounts must be mod verified before activation
 
also for those complaining, it's not that big of a deal. I'm quite comfortable using my full proper name, but it appears that there are at least four variants that are sanctioned here as a "real name"
-first name only
-first name and last name initial only
-first name initial and last name
-full name
 
first name only isn't one of the options.

Though, people haven't been complaining about the real name policy for some time, so lets please not open up that can of worms.

it is simply a matter of the sheer volume of requests to the amount of people/time to process those requests... Coupled with angry little donkeys who like to subscribe you to 300 newsletters, and angry emails, etc b/c their name didn't get changed when they initially sent in their request, etc... just slows things down and the newsletter crap, etc makes it more likely for me to miss emails, etc. then the recent server issues.

I know it's frustrating or some folks and I understand the frustration, but please just try to hang with us as we go through all of these. I guess the word "banned" conjures up bad feelings for people. It's not meant to. It's just a way of trying to streamline the process where needed and keep things moving in the right direction. Sometimes some of those folks already have an email in my inbox and they get pissed. I understand, but just try to be a bit patient, and if you get the dreaded message one day while logging in, just know that it means your name change will happen quickly :0

I also emailed the admin and asked him whether my account should be changed from its current "RRJackson" to "Robert Jackson", but I heard nothing back and assumed all was kosher. If you need my screen name changed I have no problem with it being changed.

-Robert Jackson
 
sorry. must have been doing it at the same time as jarred or something... Your name is already changed :)
