Short version: Reply to this post with your new username reservation ASAP!


Hello Peeps, we've got some important and urgent news to share with all our members.

We recently learned that we have to do an important security server and database update. This MUST be completed by the end of the day.

The good news: this will make our community 2x more secure and will reduce our spammers and trolls by up to 72%!!

The unfortunate (or perhaps for others, fortunate) part of this update: We will require everyone to choose a NEW username. For security purposes the new username MUST be something that isn't currently in use.

We regret that this is necessary, but it is something we must do to improve the security of our amazing community!

So, please reply with what you'd like your new username to be. This is a first-come-first-serve process and will reward the peeps that are online, active, and see this message. Once you reply with the username you want, this will be the system-of-record that you requested it first, and we'll reserve it for you.

We know for some this will be difficult, and we ask for patience and understanding as we go through this necessary process. We will eventually, hopefully, be able to convert usernames back to their original ones if members so choose, but it may take some time.

All BYC rules and terms apply when picking new names. Let's have some fun with this since we have no other choice. Thanks for understanding.

"I can easily *fix* mine with a few 3’s, a zero, an “_” or even a 7 or a “+” if push comes to shove…"

= "3l3c+rycm0nk" as a username

There are a couple of other permutations as well.
Now that would make a great password!

Note to all of you, if you make your password one with curses like that (full of numbers to replace vowels) in it, don't cut and paste it accidentally into an email to a perspective employer..... Kiss that job goodbye!

:th:th:th

Don’t you mean 3l3c+ricm0nk said something about nonsense?
