| May 10, 2021 at 18:12 | comment | added | Levente | Please, if one would like to change their displayed name network-wide, with the exception of this site here, AskUbuntu — where one would like it to remain as it were — what's one's best course? Would it be necessary to go over all our other communities one by one and update our profiles for the given community's scope? | |

"You can use the feature only once every 30 days, to prevent abuse. If you choose a new name, you'll have to stick with it for a while." to bypass the 30days lock, user can join to a new SE site, change the name [and then delete account optionally]. I'm not sure if this is a bug or just a open chance.

| Feb 7, 2021 at 5:47 | comment | added | Vikki | Is it possible for a mod to override the 30-day limit if you really need to for some reason, or is the limit not overridable even then? | |
