I have just setup the Members System to only allow for the setup of a unique ScreenName. Members as mentioned are able to change the screen name at any time it is just that it must be unique across the system when you change it.
Special Note: If you have a clashed name already you will not be able to update your profile until the clash is rectified. If it does occur and it really upsets you then please let me know (via
feedback page) and I will attempt to sort out the clash for you.Regards

Yes that is right - If you change from diamond(
bendigo) to say Member-Ihavenoidea and then some person comes along and grabs diamond(
bendigo) then you have lost it, unless of course that person then either changes to something else or expires.
The
test is against the full screen name however case is ignored. So Diamond(
Bendigo) is the same as diamond(
bendigo) and DIAMOND(
BeNdIgO) etc etc etc. Gees this many Diamond(
bendigo) and I am starting to have a personality crisis.
BUT, and there is always a BUT (this is computer nerd stuff after all) someone could be Diamond without the
bendigo or
Bendigo without the Diamond or even diamond(dodo) or diamond(not
bendigo).
Help LOL I am testing my sense of humor!Regards

Well yes because of the rules that I must put in place if someone could not be voxson then on the other sode of the coin someone who is David (say) could not be David 1 or David 2 or David From
Perth or anything to do with David (as and example). It is very hard to
check for the first name only and stop people from using that name as David Martin would not be allowed in the same way.
Do you get my point? Best I can do I am afraid.Regards
