Hey guys I just joined the website. I have a clan that I'm trying to set up and it told me that on the clan tag section that im not to use brackets. well, upon registration, i used brackets in my in game name. I chose this as my in game name: [TA] HeviMetalTitan. i did that in anticipation for creating a squad, not realizing that the game does that already. In the clan setup it said arma 2 will automatically put in the brackets. But if we already have the brackets in our in game name, wont that look retarded? i mean, it would probably look like this: [TA][TA] HeviMetalTitan, or [[TA]] HeviMetalTitan, right? so is there a way to change your in game name and get re whitelisted?

I think once you are whitelisted you can always change your name.

how would i go about doing that? Like i said, this website is new to me so at the moment maneuvering it is like trying to understand Chinese.

Arma 2 main menu - Profiles i think, should be able to rename in there or just create another profile, doesn't do anything except change key bindings and settings to default

Ok. thanks for the info. will i still be whitelisted if i join without the [TA] attached to my name?

Yeah, it whitelists the guid not the name

Exactly, so if you want to hang out the child one day, change name and troll like an idiot in side chat Seaweed will know who you are

alright i figured it out. thanks to you guys and seaweed. and judging from some of the ban appeals, trolling on side chat is not a good idea haha

Having fun in side chat is fine.
Being a massive ass doesn't go down too well though
