As long as he's using clearly marked armies (i.e. the appropriate models) that limit the confusion between the armies, what's the problem?

Look what I found. You know this guy I know changed armies twice in the last week. First dark angels, then blood angels, now tau. I'm pretty sure HE doesn't know all the rules either(not sure why that mattered the first time, but fair is fair).

His duplicate account (BattleBrother) was permanently closed. He requested a name change for his primary account (ChaosLordSam) to Lord of Caliban which was granted.

Users can request their account name be changed one time (and only one time), so he's now stuck as Lord of Baal, so hopefully he really likes the name.

The plot thickens...

... or does it?

Our information sayss that the friend is both BattleBrother and ChaosLordSam... and new evidence suggests it is Lord of Caliban.

Hmm...

Do not be alarmed, ladies and gentlemen... but I believe we have found Alpharius.

It is best to be a pessimist. You are usually right and, when you're wrong, you're pleasantly surprised.

Whoops, I meant to say he had requested to have his name changed to Lord of Caliban (which was granted). So yes, everything is on the up and up...well besides the fact that he had two accounts to start with, which he now knows is strictly not allowed.

So your friend has more than one account here on Dakka Dakka?

That is against the rules - thanks for the info!

So your friend is changing from one SM army to another to another to another? Ok then, tell him to change to a Xenos army and be happy with what he chooses. Obviously he isnt enjoying himself as a SM player, so if he takes the SM out of the equation, it seems to even out on my end anyways

Would getting my first "a" changed to a capital letter use up my name change?(not that I'd ever need to change such an awesome name)

Nah.

But yes, these kinds of requests should be done via PM or post in the Nuts & Bolts forum.

The only reason I'm responding in this thread is because there was some concern that perhaps another sock puppet account had been opened up (which is not the case).

Right behind you...

"I don't want my friend to change armies" -.- Troll senses tingling...

I think that you should get a life if something your friend does gets you so upset that you make a thread like this. I know many people who have 6+ armies, but I never complain about them playing armies which I do not personally like.

Besides, it is pretty hypocritical to ask people to harass your "friend" by PM for something which is only against your view of things. Just deal with it, you are not your friend's babysitter...

Says the guy who started off with Dark Angels and made a whole slew of threads about that army, before switching to Blood Angels and making a whole ton of threads about THAT army, before switching to Tau and, you guessed it, making a load of threads about that army?!

Pot, meet kettle. Also, it is absolutely no right of yours to tell other people how to spent their own hard earned - and what is more, petitioning a forum to bombard your 'friend' with PMs could also be construed as harassment. Please think twice before you make another thread as stupid and pointless as this one.

I agree completely with you. I never realized that he changed armies more often than he could count

I have a friend like this too. He cycled through 4 armies and back when we played DnD he had like 6 different chars.

It's just a certain type of character. Cna;t be helped.
