    Abuse aren't taking on "normal" name changes. They are only changed through the abuse address when they are accidently signed up as an email address or real name that needs to be changed to protect privacy :)

    If say a user just wants to change a name because they dont like it is that possible?

    Thanks MSE Webmaster.

    Just found a link for my answer.

    Hi folks,

    As MSE Controller2 mentioned earlier, changing usernames is normally done by request to the Webmaster.

    Due to resourcing issues, we cannot do it for everybody who wants it. We will only do it for people who have signed up using their e-mail addresses or with names that compromise their anonymity.

    Please do not request changes for any other reason as they are likely to be declined.
