Congratulations to you The Sceptical Chemist, For finally having your request granted. When I first saw the name in a post that I was reading, it took me like some minutes to actually figure out that it was him, I guess you have some joy now having this name changed for you.
Though Could take us some time to actually master the new name. Wink
Continue your good job Boss.

The Pharmacist has been asking our boss (theymos) to change his name to The Sceptical Chymist and today I discovered that the username has finally been changed. My brother from another country The Sceptical Chymist congratulations. I believed the additional merit allocation request also also granted. theymos thank you very much for granting him the request.

Congratulations to The Sceptical Chemist on the change of his username, I've also come across this recently with the thread from Coolcryptovator when he also requested for a change of name even though his own was changed base on the request that his username was abused by many and thereby change the alphabets from capital letters to small letters, as for me I'd liked both the former (The Pharmacist) and the new one (The Sceptical Chymist) because they both have a unique blend of beauty in pronunciation and meaning.

Nigerian Board is also on the request Queue...we also appeal to him for the creation of the board

I think it's all about time and chance with patience, i want to believe that Theymos has plans regarding this since he has approved some local threads to be pinned, I think its the first step to granting the local board requested and i believe that not only Nigeria is involved in this.

Btw does this mean his/her old user name will be retired or anybody interested in it can actually claim it
This has been already answered in the previous posts of the thread.
No nobody can register with the username "The Pharmacist". Theymos has only changed the display name. The username hasn't been changed at all and it's still owned by "The Sceptical Chymist".

I will try to replace it with the short tag of TSC instead of frequently crosschecking my spelling of the new name.
I was even thinking of shortening the new name to The Chymist instead of twisting my tongue to pronounce The Sceptical Chymist as a full phrase.
I think a great number of users are going to alternate between TSC and The Chymist than going all full. Perhaps, a few of those who like being formalistic will type out The Sceptical Chymist. I know, expectedly, they're going to be more name change requests from other users in the future. If I may even ask, and this is directing it to the entire community; may be specifically to theymos, is there any standard rule for name change? I ask this because the two cases we've experienced here so far didn't have the same reason demanding name change.

I guess I won't run into any problem if I refer to the user as Nee The Pharmacist 🧐. This name change thing makes it look like what happens in my country when ladies get married, their surnames get changed too.

Well, I think Xmas came too early for TSC. Felicitations! While I obliterate The Pharmacist from my mind, I will try to replace it with the short tag of TSC instead of frequently crosschecking my spelling of the new name.

Farewell, Leo. You will be missed!
Holy crap, now I have to get used to calling the lad The Sceptical Chymist, that's going to take some time. Tongue
Joking aside, congratulations! I know you wanted it for a long time and it's finally done. It's like a premature Christmas miracle. Smiley

Now if we talk about things which we are waiting for long time, maybe oone day theymos will answer 30 Pmalek's questions lol Cheesy?
I am afraid to ask at this point. I think I have PMed theymos twice about it and called him out in public a few times to answer the questions. But I have something else in the works right now that should be interesting to read. I am hoping to wrap it up soon, and when theymos sees it, he might rethink my request on his own. Stay tuned...

Hello Leo! You can still win.
Congratulations The Pharmacist the former and welcome The Sceptical Chemist. I would have to type the name for sometimes before my keyboard memory will have to save it. For getting your name changed after so many years of request shows that everything is possible in this forum, just at the appointed time.
Or when the right process is taken. Can you tell us if you used another strategy to convince theymos and other admins apart from opening thread and sending pms?

RIP The Pharmacist, welcome The Sceptical Chymist. Congratulations that you finally got what you wanted. I think that you already lost hope that theymos will do it, but well, better later than never. Now if we talk about things which we are waiting for long time, maybe oone day theymos will answer 30 Pmalek's questions lol Cheesy?
But damn, that username is really long and more difficult than previous one. I'm glad that I picked short username for my account Cheesy.

It's called appreciation and respect.
Loling for calling theymos our boss in OP.🤣
Man, I haven't seen you around these parts in a long time--or am I just imagining things?  Anyway, I don't know about the appreciation and respect stuff on Theymos's end, but I am getting a sense of that from the comments here, and it blows my atrophied mind.  Again I thank you all for the love fest.
No this is real, I'm like the world cup, every 4 years.🤣

Personally, I like the twist in your name "Sceptical" instead of Skeptical and "Chymist" instead of Chemist.
It's not a twist I came up with, but some very old spelling from a very old book by Robert Boyle. 

The name change request stems from very personal reasons which I won't get into here (or elsewhere).  And I've gotten quite a few PMs saying the new moniker looks strange after all this time.  I have to tell you all, I'm still getting used to it--but every time I see it these little bubbles of glee start being emitted from somewhere within me.   Cheesy

As much as I liked and were used to seeing the previous username "The Pharmacist" in posts, after such a long time period you finally manage to change your username to the one you requested. Thus, congratulations on your achievement, I don't think many users have managed to switch their username. Personally, I like the twist in your name "Sceptical" instead of Skeptical and "Chymist" instead of Chemist.

Honestly, I am confused about who that forum user or that person is because of the name that I recently saw or knew until I have known that it is The Pharmacist. Changing the forum name is possible but as you have known that you must have boss theymos' approval then theymos will change the name. As I have know before that there are other people who wanted to change their name but it didn't get approved that's why the approval of changing the forum name depends on theymos himself. Congratulations to The Pharmacist The Sceptical Cymist

Out of curiosity, i tried registering using "The Pharmacist" and:
That is not possible because only the name is changed and not the username. When you register or create an account and what you have filled up will be your username and forum name so, when you try to create an account using The Pharmacist then that's what will happen because the username "The Pharmacist" is already used. What really changed is the name and not the username itself. See  the image below.

A big thanks to theymos for acknowledging the request, it is a win for The Pharmacist - Now The Sceptical Chymist and every user that supported and joined in appealing to theymos to grant the request, shows indeed that request delayed is not denial.
Congratulations and welcome The Sceptical Chymist <--
Goodbye The Pharmacist -->

Nigerian Board is also on the request Queue...we also appeal to him for the creation of the board
Yeah, this would win Bitcointalk event of the year if theymos can make it happen for us before the year 2022 comes to an end...
We and hopefully and never loosing faith, and we never gon' stop pushing - praying until something happens.

No results when i put in "The Sceptical Chynist"
It's Chymist, not Chynist Smiley And that's the problem with the new name: it's going to take me a very long time to remember it exactly.

Obsolete spelling of chemist.
As a non-native English speaker, I had no idea.

Sceptical -> Skeptical
Chynist -> Chymist

I remember seeing something about this name changing someplace before now. Seriously, given his status on this forum, I never thought it to take so long. I love the new name, which has been changed from The Pharmacist to The Sceptical Chymist. Congratulations once more; your requests should have been fulfilled much sooner. But the wait was worthwhile now that you have what you desired.

Farewell LEO: o_e_l_e_o
Just few days ago I was talking about The Skeptical Chemist on bitcointalk as a keyword and using it as example to make a point of how keywords works for search engines. I thought TP was asking for a Chemist not Chymist LOL. But I see it was a cleaver idea from former TP 😉

I think it's how you pronounce it.
Chemist will start with "K"
Chymist no doubt is starting with "Ch"
