====How can I change my user name?==== In general, we highly prefer that our members have a user name which remains stable over the time. That is why we do not offer any automatic possibility to change your user name yourself. However, if you have a good reason for a user name change, we can change it manually for you. In this case, please [http://www.bewelcome.org/feedback?IdCategory=9 contact us], state your reasons for the change and the new user name you would like to have. <div style="color:maroon"> :Updated to this version on the website by [[User:Sitatara|Sitatara]] ([[User talk:Sitatara|talk]]) 16:09, 23 February 2013 (CET).<br> :[[User:Sitatara|Sitatara]] ([[User talk:Sitatara|talk]]) 12:16, 26 January 2013 (CET): I think it would be really good to add this information to the sign-up page where you enter the user name, i.e. that user name changes are only possible through the support (so that people choose more wisely from the start, insetad of signing up with stupid names and then wanting a change immediately). Additionally, I suggest to display the user name on the "Contact Information" tab on the "Edit my profile" page (not editable) and explain there (very shortly) how (and under which circumstances) a user name change can be made (with a link to the feedback form). I think that's the place where people search for a possibility to change their user names. Btw. I find it very weird that we allow multiple profiles and also that people delete their profiles and sign up again (that's what many people seem to do when they want a user name change)! Because that's effectively undermining the current "no user name changes" policy.<br> </div><br>
