Please can my name be Jar-ptitsa instead of vogeltje?

Thanks.

I was called Jar-ptitsa before, some years ago, and it was my favourite forum name. Also, some people who I knew before knew me with this name, not vogeltje. In addition, I don't want a Dutch name now.

I hope that I can be called Jar-ptitsa again here.

Thank you very much.

The moderators and administrators have discussed this issue (not just for you, but in general), and right now name changes is not a procedure which has been implemented on the forum . So before it could be done, it would be necessary for the administrors first to change the global settings of the forum, and then it would still leave concrete references and quotes blowin' in the wind

Iversen means that posts with quotes (such as the one I've included in this very post) and/or which include the name vogeltje would confuse the readers if there is no member with that name:
