Reason: IP in question was blocked only a couple of minutes ago, so I thought I'd dig up my old account to edit. Wasn't blocked even though it was brought to an admin's attention (see the first section of my talk) so I don't see why it wouldn't be fine. I understand and accept the privacy issues with both this username and my requested one. Thank you.

We're not going to rename you every time your IP changes. Can't you come up with a moniker that is a little more static? –
xenotalk 20:30, 29 September 2010 (UTC)reply
I suppose you've got a point there. If it's changed this once, I plan to keep it that way, and I'll just make a new account in the unlikely event I change IPs again. If you still don't think I should have this changed at all for the reasons you pointed out, I'm not going to be offended. Thanks. -

I think I understand what you're saying above. I said above that if this gets changed from .85 to .70 I won't look for a second rename later on after I do leave this IP. I'm not interested in a different username, so if you're not going to change it I'd ask you simply reject it and I'll just create a new account with the username in question. In any case, thank you for your help. -

Reason: I'm shooting for a more professional username; moving away from the one with numbers (5429). I understand and am comfortable with the risk of using proper names in the username. Simply creating a new account is not a viable option as I have over 4000 edits under my current account. Finally I am very interested in making this one of the new universal logins. If it is possible to make that change at the same time, that would be great.
