Dunno where else to put this but this seems as good a place as any.

I made my first account here last year and tried to use the name that I normally do, "AlMightyBob" but after registering I noticed that I had been registered as "AlMightyBo (http://forum.team17.co.uk/member.php?u=53178)" since the name wouldn't fit into the field. If it's at all possible to add the extra b to the account then it would be much appreciated. :)

For starters, you're not supposed to register two accounts. And it isn't possible to add another letter onto the end of your account due to the 10-charectar limit that is in place at this forum.

Plus we don't have a permanent forum webmaster to do things like that - everyone else is very busy.

Not to mention Bawb is much cooler anyway.

Was there always a limit to the name length because I've seen other people with longer names. Plus there's no way I'm posting on the forum as AlMightyBo, that's just embarrassing.

You ain't seen nothin'.




Edit: The limit was introduce a long while ago, but yeah, a few of us slipped in before it. I registered way back in 2001.
