BF2 - changing user name

[RaMDOM]

help me out if you can - I have just gotten back into BF2 following a 6 months hiatus. Really cool game, don't know why I stopped playing. Anyway, I was a member of the 50Klicks and hence have the tag. Well I haven't been on for a while and hence whenever I go on the 50K server I get flamed for having not been there for a while and get asked (politely though) to remove the tag. Well. How?

I remember that deleting your account through the interface didn't work as you would then try to create a new one with the same e-mail address and it would tell you that the e-mail address is taken. has this been fixed? Or, can I go directly to a gamespy account page and change my name in there? If so what is the url?

I am a bit loath to try and change it now as at least I can play on other servers with the 50K tag. However I am a bit carp atm and feel that I would be dragging 50K's good name through the mud.

Also as I am getting into BF2 again, does anyone think that the SF's expansion is a worthy purchase?

Start anew. I did that when I left a clan with my original name with the clan tag in it, I had over 30,000 points on that account aswell.

But the problem is that when you delete the profile it doesn't actually delete the profile it seems as when you try to register another name under the same e-mail address it says that the e-mail address is already registered. I don't want to have to create a random hotmail account for this = pain in the rear.

Gonna delete profile and try to recreate another account. If not then I will have to go the hotmail route and then go into the gamespy account pages and update it with my orginal e-mail address - hopefully. Wtf they need an e-mail?!?!?! I have never received an e-mail from them regarding this carp.

If you dont mind me asking, what was your BF2 name when u were at 50K?

=50K=ElitistCorp

You have 2 choices.

Either change your name and start again or get back in with 50K.
50k despite some posts and chat are Very reasonable when it comes to handling team/clan issues. They go out there way to resolve issues with not only tag wearers but friends of 50k and the general public. I am positive that within a week of socialising with 50k you will be accepted back in no probs at all.

Alternatively you can create a new account and start again.
This isn't as bad as it sounds as you can then enjoy leveling up and gaining your awards again.

Be aware that an Oc team is forming and you are more than welcome to put your name down. We intend to squad up and maraude publics and generally squad up regularly. You will be back to your current state stats wise in no time at all playing with us.

am happy to put my name down but a bit reticent to commit to a clan full time until I really get into the game this time (blame WOW for drawing me away from BF2 last time, but I am back as my WOW addiction is under control now, so it shouldn't take to long). Let me know where I can put my name down for the team.

Will try and get in with the =50K= lot again as you are right; while I got asked to remove the tag when on their servers I was never kicked, but I usually left before that happened.

I made up a hotmail address, as beleive it or not you can't delete a GameSpy account!?!?!? Went to the help pages and it said it in plain English! Son of a*@£$!!! So am now leveling a new account created with a hotmail account.

am now Elitist-Corp - lol!
