A person's username is the first thing people notice about you on the forum, but your contents, value and consistent quality contributions to problem solving is what people shall respect you for on the forum. Because in as much as it is good to choose a good name, let us also strive to add value whereever we find ourselves. So here are few of my contributions
But every name is a brand that offers certain service to the forum. The service might be substandard or quality services. But members must ensure that their names are associated with quality services that is contributing to the development of the forum.
And that's one of the biggest mistake most people make when registering on the forum, that is, I mean creating an account before thinking what they could offer to the forum, instead of thinking of what they could offer the forum before creating an account. And that was exactly what I had in mind before creating this my account "CRYPTOHEADLINENEWS" because the reason why I chose the name was because I had in mind to be reviewing latest crypto news headlines to the forum, while leaving people to react to the news, but it's it unfortunately as I never for once did it
This forum has no policy on name selection. This means that prospective members are free to choose any name they want in the course of registration.
I think you are wrong on this, because the forum actually has a policy on name selection because you can't choose a name that already has been chosen by someone else. That is no two person can bear the same name on the forum, which is actually a policy
Choosing a suitable name is important because it might never be edited or changed.
I think someone above @ AnotherAlt just proved to us that name can be changed, of which only Theymos has the power to do so
