Username change - Inori - 12-17-2017

It's been almost two years, so I thought it's about time for a new username. My current avatar is a placeholder and I need a new signature image, so I'm open to any suggestions.

Clarification edit: I used to be Inori

Can you clarify for us who you used to be called?

Good point, that might be kind of important Tongue

I wish username changes were more easily traceable - I have the memory of a goldfish. Not sure what I'd recommend.

There are mybb plugins for username history, and they've been suggested before

I think we had one before we converted to the new theme, not sure what happened to it.

I like your new avi.
Why did you change your username? I mean what's the point?
Everyone has known you as Inori (witch is an awesome username) now seeing you as Valkyrie is just weird

I do it every once in a while just to change things up. It used to be every 6ish months, but I'm gonna stick with new ones for at least 18 months now. I've been meaning to make this specific change for a while; I prefer having an alias that isn't bound to any one thing (e.g. Inori to the GC character).

I mostly meant in terms of my practical memory. When I look at a username I rely on the name, avatar and signature to remind me of who it is and what interaction I've had with them before. All of these end up changing over time and one's identity is completely lost to me unless I decide to dig and figure it out - Which is unlikely for me to put effort into unless you're an old returning member of SL. Mainly cos I'll have further interactions with you if you're an active/current member and will remember that way.

tl;dr I meant it in relation to remembering off-the-bat without having to check- which means my traceable wording was terrible. My memory and mental organization are also terrible. Otherwise, fair point!
