Roleplay/In Character Not being able to change my username

Post image

Why did reddit give me this username???? I can't even do anything about it! Why do the people at Reddit think that I am an "ill" Representative? Do thepy even know how many cases I have won? I would go as far as to say that I am a very good representative! Now everyone will think that I am a bad lawyer because of this stupid feauture!

u/kira1122t 4d ago

My name is a jojos reference

My name is Yoshikage Kira. I'm 33 years old. My house is in the northeast section of Morioh, where all the villas are, and I am not married. I work as an employee for the Kame Yu department stores, and I get home every day by 8 PM at the latest. I don't smoke, but I occasionally drink. I'm in bed by 11 PM, and make sure I get eight hours of sleep, no matter what. After having a glass of warm milk and doing about twenty minutes of stretches before going to bed, I usually have no problems sleeping until morning. Just like a baby, I wake up without any fatigue or stress in the morning. I was told there were no issues at my last check-up. I'm trying to explain that I'm a person who wishes to live a very quiet life. I take care not to trouble myself with any enemies, like winning and losing, that would cause me to lose sleep at night. That is how I deal with society, and I know that is what brings me happiness. Although, if I were to fight I wouldn't lose to anyone.

so like did Reddit remove the ability to sign up with a custom name because I remember getting to pick mine

if so, fuckin sucks thats some bullshit

41

u/LegThePeg 4d ago

Nah, you can still pick one, it’s just that most people try to speedrun the setup and miss the part where it says “this is permanent”.

Honestly, if I could, I would choose to have a generic Reddit username instead of this, because mine is quite easily searchable. Considering the fact that I have a cyberstalker, having a searchable username is not a good thing.

Does Reddit really think nobody will ever wanna change their username for over a decade?

Can't even let the display name appear on our comments and replies, it's only on the profile that people only go to when they want to dig up dirt on you.
