Hello!

Can you change my nickname to Alexxali, please?

The reason why I want this is because my present nick (AliXmAn) is very old, I was using it in 2006-2007. Nowadays, almost everybody (friends) knows me under the username "Alexxali".

Thank you in advance!

C'mon Damiska, you've got to try harder than that. We're classy mods...or whatever...we need sophisticated humor :p

Mrs Crumplebottom slams her glass of nectar on the counter . Mixologist/Bartender PT9 looks at her. Mrs Crumplebottom: My plumbob has been red for a few days PT9. I am sick of the young things being immoral - my romance aspiration is jealous of them!

PT9: Agnes, maybe its time you went ... platinum

Mrs Crumplebottom: Do you mean-
PT9: Yes! You show me your plumbob
Mrs Crumplebottom: And I'll show you mine!
PT9: Let's do it the human way!
Mrs Crumplebottom: Hooray for indeceny!
PT9: PUBLIC WOOHOO FTW!

From that day on, Mrs Crumplebottom put her purse away from ever. The 'Young Things' were free at last from her wrath!

First of all, sorry my bad English.

Okay, so this is something funny happened in the past,
I hate to recall it but for username's sake I just have to.
I love bugs very much, but I think they just hate me.

I think I was like 5 or 6 that time.

Okay, I found this cockroach crawling around the room. You know, as a kid, just like to messing around with things.

With the greatest urge to mess with it, I grabbed this piece of cloth then I threw on it so it trapped inside.
And with my little bravery, I lifted the cloth up.


......it's gone....

Then, BAM!

It flew onto my face and I stood up as it got away from my face.
A short while after that, I felt tickles on my head..

........................

................................

"........MOOOOOOOM.....!!!" I ran around the house looking for my mom like a ..*sigh*..it was awful, it was crazy, I don't how to describe my feeling that moment a goddamn cockroach stuck in my hair, all I did was screaming "MOM"(because everyone was out that day except mom and me).

So I finally got to my mom,
and things actually got worse because my mom hates cockroach.

She screamed too.

I didn't know what to do so I just shook my head trying to get rid of that cockroach like a maniac,
and my mom just standing there like, she's going to set me on fire or something.

And yeah after a while I finally got rid of that cockroach, I looked like I was battling with Voldemort with my messed up hair and heavy breath, god, I think it worst than battling Voldemort!

Moral of the story: Do not mess with cockroach.


I know the way I write this story may make this story less funny, but use your imagination
Oh, yeah, my desired name is, Dragonflysparkles.
And if this denied, I have more stories about my bad moments with bugs.
Yikes.

I have a truly heartbreaking story to share. Some might say my current username reflect this, but I choose to think of it as one of the sad, leftover nuggets of tragedy that served as a building block to the person I am today. Allow me to explain, and judge for yourself whether I deserve my new desired username: Syva.

Most babies upon coming into this world are welcomed with a slap to the buttocks and the welcoming arms of their adoring parents. It has become so common that most would proclaim it a right. I laugh cynically in the face of your privileged assumptions. Tragically, my parents regarded me with cold eyes and declared me a suspicious addition to their household. See, they didn't want a baby. They were convinced babies were going to take over the world with a combination of the processed mishmash that serve to feed babies nowadays, strips of leftover dirty diaper stolen systematically and hidden in Mr Bunbun's hollow insides for later use, and of course, globs of spittle collected in their sippy cups. What could that possibly get you, mother? Soggy strips of soiled diaper in spittle with a dollop of peach-flavoured mishmash can only be used as a disturbing, baby-themed facial mask.

As a result of their beliefs, they always wore gloves to handle me, and adressed me as "the being". I frequently question why my parents chose to keep me, or get pregnant in the first place, after seeing first hand the effect of their phobia. But I wander. After years of tom-foolery that saw me growing up convinced I was an alien (the first viewing of ET was a true revelation, and I spent a confused few weeks trying to reprogram our telephone to "phone home"), I eventually grew to realise that my parents were a unique combination of fearful and crazy.

Vividly I recall the day I saw "Baby Geniuses" on television:
My mother, turning off the TV as she saw me staring. Her eyes narrowing, and her venomous tone that warned me not to try and giggle innocently.
"You think this ploy fools US? You little spawns of evil aren't nearly as clever as you think. It's a transparent attempt of reverse psychology that deceives no-one. NO-ONE, I TELL YOU!" Me crawling away, seeing things in slow-motion as the trauma of the moment took hold of my little head (or, you know, because I was crawling...I'm still shaky about the details here). She grabbed hold of my tiny shirt with the words "I'm a cyborg" hand-stitched on its front.
"You're a filthy little parasite on humanity's powerless ability to see you for what you are. BUT WE KNOW!" She screamed at me, before putting the remote on a shelf in a fiendishly cruel move. I didn't get to watch a TV again until I was eleven, but that's besides the point.

(On a side note, I suffered a period of madness a year ago when I thought of this incident. Who remembers this much detail about something when they were still in the crawling stage? Was I a super baby? Am I real? What is life, and is birth actually an opportunity to join up with other higher evolved beings as my parents claimed? Did I fail in a mission I can't remember? Why can't I find evidence that Mr. Bunbun's manufacturers ever existed, except the time I saw their name on the credits of a sleazy porn video from 1982?)

I escaped the hollow house of madness and a curious avoidance of the words "world domination" (I was at an impressionable age, my parents were quite OCD in their restrictive measures) when I rolled into my tenth year. Though their suspicion faded after my fourth birthday (there's a deadline to joining the ranks of the baby apocalypse), I was scarred and confused, and was determined to find my real parents that owed me a welcoming hug to a world not populated by fearful wide-eyed gazes whenever I reached for Mr. Bunbun.

What does this have to do with "Bellgirl", might you ask? After I arrived in the sane world screaming "freedom" metaphorically, I was terrified that they wouldn't believe I was human and harmless. As a result, I named myself in a combination of a soothing object (to toll the arrival of a harmless human) and what I truly was, a girl (I swear it on the life of Mr. Bunbun's completely stuffed insides). Recently I've realised that insisting you're a human, much as my parents insisted to the authorities that the zombie apocalypse is a trifling side dish in the grand meal of the baby apocalypse, is not wise. It might even be considered suspicious by some. In fact, someone did once make the leap from suspicion to action by demanding proof of my humanly status. My offer to perform a rap version of Shania Twain's "Man! I Feel Like A Woman!" did not go down well.

As a result I'm abandoning the attempt to convince anyone I'm a girl for a road less traveled by the escapees of phobia-ridden parents. I'm going to ask you to trust me, and call me Syva. Why Syva? That, my friends, is a story for another day. It has absolutely nothing to do with Mr. Bunbun (stuffed, just sayin'), whom I always carry with me as a reminder of...well, never mind, just call me Syva, please.

I would like mine to be auroraTerra..why? Because the name fits more of my personality and I love Aurora's and Terra means land like the earth :D. Now here is the funny story. Please bear with me im not good at humor here :D. Every night Aurora's appeared over the Terra land. The Terra was not pleased with the arrivals and decided to banish the Auroras by poofing them untill a little bottle and locking them away. The Auroras got out and turned the Terra into a happy white cloud while the Aurora's happily celebrated thier victory with invinting the Sun and the Moon and they pushed hte Terra away and Terra was sucked into a black hole. The end

Lolipop26: A story can be fiction. A funny story isn't a lie. A joke isn't a lie. And while "Amouseing" is a bit funny, I'm not sure it's funny enough. (Especially as you haven't given enough evidence that it wasn't just an accidental misspelling. )

Ok, it's a bit silly to have your first post be a request for a name change.

But it's not an amusing story.

You may not register a new account to get the name you want! Multiple accounts per person are not allowed!

If you would like to request a username change, you may post here. Please check first that the username you would like is not taken. If the username you would like is taken, please choose another. You can do this by going to:

http://www.modthesims.info/member/Y...redUsernameHere

... and obviously, just changing that last bit.

Please do not ask to have your name changed to something stupid full of numbers or xXx_P1nkEm0Pr1nc355_xXx type crap as we will just laugh at you and tell you no.

This thread will be checked periodically by administrators for requested changes - we will usually do any changes in batches, so please don't expect it to be immediate or even very soon.

If you request a username, you must come up with a funny, amusing, or silly story telling us why you want your name changed. Yes, this is a real requirement - without something halfway amusing, we will not change your name. Yes, seriously. And no, something along the lines of "lol my current username sucks look how stupid I am ha ha laugh at me" does not count.


I was simply trying to let you know that you should probably try to come up with something funnier if you really wanted a name change, since this thread is so long that you didn't seem to read the first post. (Perfectly understandable, it is TL;DR for a lot of people. 24 pages is a lot!) Of course if you simply want to be abusive, you are going to take offense at this as well. But at least now you can find the rules if you really are interested in following them and getting your name changed.

Briunna: Name change request denied. Don't treat any of the members of this website like that.

Tumblr - Yes, I have a blog. :)

JJcoolJ104, I don't see any indication that your request was denied. Someone even marked your story as funny.

Just remember that they do the name changes in batches on an irregular basis. It's only been a couple of days.

Was my story funny enough? I saw it was unmarked as unhelpful after I changed it. If so, how long does it usually take for a name to be changed?

It happens in batches when the admin has time to do it (by hand) so there is no real way to tell how long it will be before it happens. But since a couple of people who posted after you did get their name changed, you might want to try again.


And as for the requirement for a funny story I really like this explanation:

Funny stories serve as a distraction for the demon so that an admin can make username changes at the Username Shrine without being eaten. That is why the funny stories are necessary, why they must be funny, and why username changes are typically done in batches (so as to minimize the number of risky trips to the shrine).

My understanding is that they tried to feed it sheep, but the sheep kept leaving the demon constipated. No one likes a constipated demon. (Don't let the commercials fools you, that special yogurt will not help regulate a demon's digestive system.) Goats are getting very expensive these days. An amusing story has just the right nutrients at just the right price.


Of course the explanation originally posted at the Sims 2 Community where the name change thread began was that it has to be done by hand, and it's a real pain to do so. If you don't want it badly enough to give her a funny story, you don't want it badly enough for her to do it.

Look at everyone who posted after you. Did any of them receive their name change? If so, then someone actually did the name changes and did not do yours. In that case, you might want to post another funny story. However, if no one since your post has received a name change, then it is logical to assume that they have not done any name changes yet and that you are still in the queue.
