Username Swap by Hyprole
I managed to get my username swapped with my old account (StarshipHyprole has become Hyprole)
so
I will be staying on this account after all - the one that's posting this journal entry
Just in case there's any confusion over who this is. So nobody has to refollow or unfollow after all - unless you want to - and I don't have to repost or refollow everything.
Thanks to the weasyl staff - they were much faster than I expected. :)

They sure seem to be o3o

'tis above my powers, but I'm glad to hear of your good experience with Weasyl administration!
-
I think it was the director kihari that did it. But I thought it would take a day to get a reply at least, not a couple of hours. Which is good! :D

do you know how to do that for an FA account y any chance? Im trying to change my name to my old one
-
No way this can happen on FA, they can't even fix big things most of the time, let alone individual usernames. But honestly I'm not sure, just don't think it's likely.
-
its hard even getting them to reply to a trouble ticket half the time
-
-
No idea sorry... the only thing you could do is ask the staff but I've never been aware of anyone swapping names on FA - only making new account names and moving everything over. :/
-
thank you for letting me know just the same

-
Awesome :D
-
hehe it's really cool that you can do that here :3
-
Yeah! I'm not sure if I like the way it is on tumblr (and on DA for subscribers) where anyone can chance their username any time and sometimes you see a name and aren't even sure who it is but the way it is organised here - with the option to do it but only when it's really needed - makes a lot of sense.
-
heh yesssss ._.
I really don't like it when people on tumblr change both their username and icon at the same time. When people do that I tend to unfollow them if I can't figure out who they are.As for dA... pfeh like I'm gunna pay to just change my username - they already get money from virus-ridden adverts (hooray for adblocker). And since I don't think I'd use any of their premium add-ons I'd rather just create a new account. :P
Weasyl seems to have gotten it right so far. Maybe they won't be so fast when the userbase grows but they'll likely find a way to work around that.
-
Yeaaah! I am subscribed on DA but mostly because I use their portfolio domain (it was before tumblr though, really having doubts about buying another subscription when my current one runs out).
-
ahh I never used their portfolio thing... I always thought that was free though. O_o I get the impression that deviantart isn't always the best option for professionals - but I don't know how the portfolio part of it works though.
There are a lot of professionals on dA which is cool but I have noticed a surge of people from the animation industry joining tumblr recently... and a lot of people use blogspot too (it's just harder to search and find new people there). So many places to choose from x)
-
The nice thing about the portfolio part is that it's easy to edit and it's not connected to the main account from the outside - I'd rather not link clients to my DA considering that people who are not internet-savvy get easily lost there.
I use tumblr and occasionally look at blogspot but I don't like scrolly dashboard type of places much - very easy to miss things unless you browse it daily. With DA I can not check it for a while but all the art I like will still end up sorted in my inbox.
