[Bartman2]

Well, as you may know, I've recently changed my name, and when I tried to log in today, it didn't recognize my new username, Skyward Sword. just for the hell of it, I tried Bartman2, and It worked. Can you fix this, Fel--Twilight Sparkle?

That's because it recognizes you as your original username. Once you change your username, you still have to log in as your first name. I don't think you can "fix" it, it's just the way it is.

Edit: Also, here is the exact information on what I'm talking about; from the the changing display name area.

"You have made 0 of 3 display name changes since 22 Aug 2011. You are permitted to make 3 changes in a 30 day period.
Changing your display name will not affect your log in details."

Depending on when you have changed your name, the date will be different, as you can see, my last change was 22 Aug 2011.
But, as you can see, it says that changing your display name will not affect your log in details.

As nintendo3DS said, changing your display name does not affect your log in name. They are two separate names, and the idea behind this behaviour is that you can have a username that looks like this - ƮƜƖƪƖƓƕƬ ƧƥǡƦƙƪƐ - without needing to figure out how to type it when logging in.

You cannot change your login name yourself, but AMAC or I could through the ACP. Want me to?

Okay, new problemo. Now I want to change back to Bartman, but Ive made my one name change per 30-day period. Can you make the time shorter, if possible?
