:insh: is there any way to "edit" ones username. to be specific, i wanted to remove the caps from my user name ie, it would read alexlahoz instead of AlexLahoz.
:insh: if any of the mods could give their insight, it would be most appreciated.

masha'Allah, the name that way certainly sticks out. Though ppl might refer you as AL if you small size it they might just call you by your name.

Even though I hate to say no, it's just that if we allow one person to do it for cosmetic reasons, then everyone will feel as though they're also entitled to a username change. Which will be chaos.

So for the time being, sorry AL!

not only that but if a person is so use to a person's username then the person changes it, and you go and see someone else responding to the ?s you asked that person you'll be like huh? and some others will be like who is this person, not knowing about the name change.

though in some cases it should be allowed like special conditions, like if a person was harassing another person for the sake of it. Then if it continues and doesn't stop then they should have that option to change their username or delete their former name and re-register under a new name.
also change a bit of their style of writing so that person harassing them won't pick up on that and start again.
