.....2. Upon approval, you will be asked to transfer 100,000 TC* to the administrator.
.....3. Your account name will be changed for you upon receiving the funds.
However, your new username must
The approval of your chosen username is subject to the discretion of the administrator or the moderation team, who will determine its appropriateness.

Case changes cost 5,000 TC per letter.
For example, list to LisT would cost 5,000 + 5,000 = 10,000 TC.
Similar to how you would traditionally change your name, you are required to contact an administrator for this purpose as well.
How many times can I change my name?
You are allowed to change your name as many times as you want, as long as they satisfy the criteria mentioned above in this thread.
*However, the cost for a name change doubles every time.
i.e. the second time you change your name you will need to pay 200,000 TC, the third time would cost you 400,000 TC and so on.
The moderation team retains the sole authority to decline a name change without the obligation to provide a reason for their decision.
