      Who knows, may be this number can be ever pushed. For example 666 or some 13 or what?
      Sorry I've edited my post you have quoted, just for replace non-english word.

      What happens in any online multiplayer game where the name is taken? OR a forum?  It makes you come up with another one.
      The human part in play here is you creatively overcoming a non ideal situation with professional integrity.  Add another 5 in there somewhere instead of referring to people accused of hacking the government.

      Did you really check your cables?

        I can accept this, but not after 5 years of successful use before some government hacking or anything else happened. Anyway I want to hear an adequate answer from Jim Thompson or resource owner about this situation or some policy. Not just the assumption that you offered, even if it's really good as I think.

          Why divert their attention, wouldnt you rather have 2.4?

            That's why I have created this topic on forum, without interfering in the redmine :)

              Right and I just want to suss out what the deal is about this. (not that I have any power here whatsoever)

              So I'm assuming you're not in the states, where you could probably add your state at the end of your name like W4RH34DTX?

              Did you really check your cables?

                I think you understand that there is no problem to change the name, but I'll wait a bit more. I can even use japanese to translate my real last name, so nobody can reverse it right way, place numbers or whatever but I am not sure that the current policy if it exists, accepts any other names that are written in Latin, not pseudonyms and  can be confirmed by driving license or passport, for example… I just don't know :(

                  It's just unprofessional. IMHO.

                  Pot, meet kettle. Dude, either do what you said in the title of the thread, or use another name. I'm sure you are smart enough to realize that as long as you don't go out of your way to pick a name specifically to troll or offend, you will be fine. Or you can complain here and argue with others in this useless thread.

                      If it useless why you are writing here?  ;D
                      I think it's not just as simple as you think. Ok, five years ago it was not good idea to choose this name and it's unprofessional from my side, yes, I just did not think about causation as W4RH34D mentioned. But this name was not used to troll or offend, so I successfully used it until now, when I was pushed to change it for "known" reason. And this pushing on a user in open discussion is not acceptable if you have not any other reason except those you have learned from TV. This is what I am calling unprofessional, if it's true, noting else.

                        And another thing that was pointed — issue was rejected for the same reason.
                        Ok let's reject or delete all issues created by me if it so simple as you think.

                          Congratulations.  You've managed to completely deflect and derail this thread from the actual issue* and morph it into how to deal with already taken user names.

                          Prohibited user names with out any publicly available policy or list.
                          Requirement to change user name without explanation of any kind.  Not even an attempt to explain even when asked for.

                            Yes, I think it's time to close this topic.
                            I would not change my name on redmine and would not post anything there since until I have an adequate answer, that can be send privately not even on public.
