I just put the full story on my blog, but because PokerStars will not let you change your display name, I wanted to create a new account, transfer my money over, and continue on under my new name. Originally (here also) I was "Jackwrangler" because I could get the domain name, and the handle was free most places.

Unfortunately, I didn't google it in order to discover that "Jack Wrangler" was a gay porn star.

So upon setting up the new account, something flagged at Poker Stars and they locked me down. I didn't realize you couldn't create a new account. I asked for an exemption--I don't want multiple accounts, I just want to change my display name. It's been 24 hours, and there has been no reply.

I guess I understand why they don't want you changing your name, and I certainly understand why they don't allow multiple accounts. But I still hope they'll give me an exemption. Otherwise, I guess I'm off to Full Tilt, which I already don't like the interface for.
