This has been going on for months now - loads of users who never bother to change their initial username that you give them.

It's really hard to tell them apart and, frankly, it's a gift to goady fuckers/trolls and the like.

We never used to have this system, so why do we have to have it now?

And, more to the point, why do we still have it when lots of us have been complaining about it as well?!

Hi all,

Sorry for the late reply! We know it's massively annoying for many of you, but this is on the tech list. We don't have a time frame, unfortunately, but they are looking into it. Thanks for your patience Flowers

Will try and get another update from tech on this - so far we know they're looking into it but that's about it at the moment. Sorry not to have any extra information at the moment; we know how frustrating that is.

Just to reiterate what Emmanuelle has said - we've spoken to tech today and they're working on it as we speak. Once we have a date for the update, we'll let you all know. Thanks for being so patient.

Hi, folks

These usernames won't be around forever, promise!

There has just been a pretty big redesign of the local websites and so tech is somewhat swamped at the moment, but we'll flag this again now.
