Backread comments are in off topic and should be locked, you are all talking about VIP donations.

I think one can become VIP member by donating 7 Btc.As a vip member,one may have privilege to change one's username I guess

Nope, to become a VIP Donator cost upwards of $10,000

To become a donator cost 2.3k

No, the correct amount is :

 - 50 btc | VIP

 - 10 btc | Donator


The conversion in dollar is 'useless' Wink.

changing the amount of btc required to become donator/VIP now will be rather unfair to the early donators/VIPs.

How so? Do you think laszlo would have spent 11.47 million on a pizza?

Coins weren't worth that much back in the day

No, you can not. Please stop posting nonsense and spreading false information. The required amount that needs to be donated will most likely not be changed ever.

No. 10BTC as in, 10BTC at the current price, $2320.

To become a donator you needed to pay for a month of hosting. I doubt it cost 2.3k a month to host this forum, the thread should be revised  Grin

Sorry for the confusion. Looks like I made an error. Yes, staff members can change their name. Similar to that what donators and VIPs can.
Note: I just did it.
10BTC will do, no need for 50BTC.

He maybe bought an account and he doesnt like its original Username and wanted to change to his desired one.

Nah, I've had this username on xda since 2011

I'm getting confused now, probably a new thread would be better but seeing the amount of off-topic replies here I don't think one more would hurt.
Mitchell(before deleting his post) said that staff members can change their usernames is that true or not?

That's not a good reason to change someone's username. While buying accounts is not against the rules, I doubt that anyone older/trusted here supports such behavior. Please stop with the unnecessary replies. We have already answered your question OP. I suggest that you lock this thread now.

10BTC will do, no need for 50BTC. Anyway, theymos almost never changes usernames for someone (and why should he, it's your responsibility to pick a good name).

Nope it doesn't mean he can change usernames, staff members are a group of people more or less responsible for managing the newbies or the topic they are moderator in, although I'm not sure if Staff itself has the option to change their usernames, thats probably something that hasn't been discussed yet.
Only admins can change the usernames, theymos can not much sure if BadBear can though
This is not so simple and not completely correct. There are various ranks among the staff members (i.e. patroller, moderator, global moderator). The staff members can not alter their usernames.

I thought being staff member can change name  Huh
No. Yes.

Anyway, theymos almost never changes usernames for someone (and why should he, it's your responsibility to pick a good name).
As said, theymos rarely changes usernames these days. He's very busy and you need a pretty good reason for him to do it for you. However, OP maybe you will get lucky (I doubt it) and message him at the right time.
