is there anyway to request a name change because i want to change from Nakademon to God_R34 if thats even possible? |
Posted by: BOZZ Feb 28 2007, 12:51 PM |
Best way to try is to ask either of the two administrators. It's how I've changed my nickname to BOZZY to BOZZ to I am the BOZZ. |

or u can do it the crap slow way by earning DP ie points in which u can use to change name for 2mil DP. best to ask a admin |
Posted by: D3MON Feb 28 2007, 02:28 PM | ||
what the heck is a dp point? |
Posted by: BOZZ Feb 28 2007, 02:53 PM |
Points you get from playing some of the games in the IDW arcade. |
Posted by: D3MON Feb 28 2007, 09:41 PM |
k i got some points now how do i change the name? |
Posted by: InitialDRulz Feb 28 2007, 09:50 PM |
2,000,000 DP's which only 3 people has encountered. Good Luck. but i would recommend just PMing an admin to change it since its easier |
Posted by: D3MON Feb 28 2007, 10:29 PM |
i did and apex gave me the points... |
Posted by: Kev Feb 28 2007, 10:35 PM | ||
Well in order to do that, you better have a good excuse. Doesn't seem like you do. You just want to change it just for fun. In that case, go buy the name change thing from the store. haha |

Would it be possiable to change my name mods and admins? That would be cool! *Merged All Name Change Threads* |
Posted by: Kerxn Mar 28 2007, 05:28 PM |
Get DPs or ask Perry to change it. YOU NEED A DAMN GOOD REASON. |
Posted by: killerenergy Mar 28 2007, 07:45 PM |
who are DP's? I've been a member for a long time and I don't really go by this name anymore. We'll see. Thanks for the help |
Posted by: WRX DEMON Type R Mar 28 2007, 07:54 PM | ||
LOL... "Who are DP's" LOL...Hahahah You dont know who the DP's are? OMG, and you've been a member for so long... ROFL *sigh* DP's are the currency that we use in the store at IDW. you can earn more DP's by playing our games, etc. The name change option is available there to buy, with a couple other nifty features. But i suppose if you throw yerself before Perry's mercy, and beg really hard, he'll change yer name fer ye. |
Posted by: BOZZ Mar 28 2007, 07:54 PM |
The in-forum currency to buy things like the "Change your name" item. |
Posted by: 207 Mar 28 2007, 08:00 PM | ||
dont worry, youre not alone, im a long time member here and only learned of DP 1 month ago |
Posted by: killerenergy Mar 29 2007, 04:22 PM |
opps sorry. I'll try to come around more offten peace! |
Posted by: Möbius Mar 29 2007, 05:13 PM | ||
Yes, many people don't know about DP's... |
Posted by: 207 Mar 29 2007, 05:33 PM |
dps arent really worth it usually to start with, just another way to spend time here |
Posted by: Möbius Mar 29 2007, 05:41 PM | ||
That's exactly it, a way to pass time if you're bored... |
Posted by: killerenergy Mar 29 2007, 10:27 PM |

I just realized the join date, you have been here a long time... |
Posted by: WRX DEMON Type R Mar 30 2007, 07:45 PM |
I think it's about time i changed/tweaked my username a bit... Maybe add "Type R" after "WRX DEMON", you know, to reflect my healthier, more active lifestyle... Man, im such a nerd. |
Posted by: killerenergy Apr 2 2007, 01:58 AM |

Posted by: Black_MKII Apr 3 2007, 07:32 AM |
how can i change my name plz? thnx |
Posted by: Meteor Apr 3 2007, 08:33 AM |
You have two ways to change your name. A. Go to the "Store" (look near the top of this page) and play the games at the arcade accesible from there until you get enough DP to "buy" the ability to change your name once. Should take some months if you're good at those games, and 1-2 years or more if you're not. B. Ask an admin to change it by giving him a PM. But you'll need a good reason. |
Posted by: Möbius Apr 3 2007, 03:16 PM |
OK, there has been a couple of topics recently, about changing usernames. There's 2 ways : 1. Purchase "Change Username Item" from the DP Store. Use it to change your username. 2. Ask an Admin to change it for you ( but you will need an extremely good reason ). |
Posted by: WRX DEMON Type R Apr 3 2007, 04:30 PM | ||
pm'ing the IDW lord/emperor/sultan/king/master/god/creator/messiah, otherwise known as Perry NOW! Hopefully he thinks my reason is a good one and not a silly one. |
Posted by: BOZZ Apr 3 2007, 04:35 PM |
If worse comes to worse I can send you the dps to buy the item, I have enough on hand. |
Posted by: WRX DEMON Type R Apr 3 2007, 05:17 PM |
*Drools* *melts into a squirming puddle of ooze* *POINTS FRANTICALLY AT USERNAME* LOOKY LOOKY LOOKY!!! I'm a type R now!!!!! TEEHEE!!! Thank you Perry!!! |
Posted by: BOZZ Apr 3 2007, 05:17 PM |
No offense but it is so out of place to have that name, but hey it means WRX Demon is no longer your nickname... |
Posted by: WRX DEMON Type R Apr 3 2007, 05:19 PM |
Thats fine, call me Type R for short from now on. |
Posted by: BOZZ Apr 3 2007, 05:21 PM | ||
I meant in that I could change my nickname on IDW to WRX Demon now if I chose to do so. |
Posted by: Möbius Apr 3 2007, 05:21 PM | ||
Care to take it to PM , guys? Or are they blocked again? |
Posted by: BOZZ Apr 3 2007, 05:22 PM | ||
What's there to take to PMs? I just noted I could use his nickname if I wanted to and how out of place his new name is... >< As for PMs, you'll have to ask Demon about that, he's had me blocked on IDW PMs for over 2 years (I don't block anyone on PMs anymore, there's not much of a point). |
Posted by: Möbius Apr 3 2007, 05:24 PM | ||
I merged all the "Name Change" threads together, and pinned so it's a forum resource. I don't think it's necessary to make this thread go into the double digits in the Feedback and Support section. If you have a one-on-one convo with someone that has effectively no bearing on anyone else whatsoever, then I think it would be wise to take it to PM's. |
Posted by: brina&kyla Jul 15 2007, 08:02 AM |
Umm sorry to ask... How can i, if i can, change the "IDW Senior Member" thing.... the one below the avatar? Do I have to reach a certain number of posts? Or do i have to do the steps in changing usernames? |
Posted by: DamienWolf Jul 15 2007, 08:14 AM | ||
If you have reached at least 300 posts, you can PM Perry about changing your custom title. If you reach around 800 posts I think you can change it yourself (I still dont have that option even if I'm at 900 posts, gotta ask Perry about this.) There is also an item from the "IDW" store that you can have a one-time change of custom title. Click on "STORE" near the top of the page for details. Usernames are a different story. If you want to change your Username, you have to contact a mod with a sufficient reason enough why you want it changed. There is also an item in the IDW store that you can buy so you can change your username. Its the most expensive item, though. |
Posted by: brina&kyla Jul 15 2007, 08:26 AM | ||
WTF... 300? Seems this IS different from GZ... |
Posted by: DamienWolf Jul 15 2007, 08:33 AM | ||
Yeah. In GZ its free but for the custom title, its "earned" here. A reasonable request to Perry usually is enough as long as you've established yourself as a consistent poster in the forums. |
Posted by: Perry Jul 15 2007, 01:23 PM | ||
Quoted straight from Forum Guidelines.
Hope that answer both of your questions. When in doubt, read the Forum Guidelines first. It's there for a reason. |
Posted by: brina&kyla Jul 15 2007, 06:23 PM |
Thanks... Maybe i'll try to read more of everything here |
Posted by: DamienWolf Jul 15 2007, 06:41 PM | ||
Alright! Thanks Perry! I knew I should be able to change my custom title, just didnt know where to find the option that does. I always assume its at the avatar settings... |
Posted by: Yuki Aizawa Jul 17 2007, 06:33 AM |
I PM'ed Perry and he only changed my Custom Title T_T (I changed from "Ace" to "Raito Yagami" long ago... *o*) |
Posted by: Kelvin Jul 23 2007, 10:32 PM |
My avatar has "request admin pm" what should I do? |
Posted by: DamienWolf Jul 23 2007, 10:35 PM | ||
Well uh... maybe you should "request an admin" if you want to "change title"? |
Posted by: Kelvin Jul 23 2007, 10:36 PM | ||
Ok, i will. Thanks man! |
Posted by: BDDEE@ Sep 4 2007, 03:12 AM |
yay!!! thank you Perry xD |
Posted by: Yuki Aizawa Mar 27 2009, 10:51 AM |
I still wanna change my nickname. The other day took hours to remember what nick I was using here :\ (and that's because in almost every forum i'm "Yuki" or "tokyolight") so... any good sir would give me DPs?? 'Cause I think Perry would kill me if I tell him "this" reason :\ Thanks in advance *o* |
Posted by: Tessou Mar 27 2009, 11:17 AM |
Just ask Perry, dude. It takes him two seconds, it's not a big deal. |
Posted by: BOZZ Mar 27 2009, 11:52 AM |
You can give me a ring ring on IM, I'll hook you up. |
Posted by: Yuki Aizawa Mar 27 2009, 12:49 PM | ||
Thanks but BOZZY saved my day. I owe u one, Bozz =D |
Posted by: BOZZ Mar 27 2009, 12:58 PM |
No problem, just doing my duty as an IDW superhero. |
Posted by: player1 Jun 4 2009, 06:04 PM |
