:That's something that Wikia Staff have to do, since it requires a lot of things to be changed behind the scenes. I'll drop them an email to change <code>User:GTA4PC</code> to <code>User:F-n-B</code>, which might take a couple of days.

:Hullo! Unfortunately, this is quite difficult with the shared user database we use, and requires a lot from the tech team to sort out. It *may* become possible in the future, as we upgrade the software, but for now we recommend creating a new account, and making it obvious from the user pages that you have changed name (e.g. redirect the old user page). (While exceptions can be made, we need a really good reason, lest it open the floodgates :P ) [[w:User:Kirkburn|Kirkburn]] ([[w:User_talk:Kirkburn|talk]]) <staff/> 16:02, 12 January 2009 (UTC) | ::Hullo!

:That makes sense. So if you want to do this, make a new account, and just log into your old one to let me know which one you're using (so I know it is you that made the account). Then I can issue the promotion to the new account. [[w:c:gta:User:Gboyers|Gboyers]] <sup>[[:w:c:gta:User_talk:Gboyers|talk]]</sup> 16:39, 12 January 2009 (UTC) | |||
