When you go to My account > Profile > Edit profile the username field is greyed out and a message displayed alongside it that says "your username cannot be changed".

However, the nickname field is available to edit and you can change that and when you click on the "update profile" button at the bottom of the page, it will even display the message "profile updated" at the top, as if something has happened or has changed, but nothing actually occurs apart from the nickname field changing to whatever you set it as.

The original Godzilla movie was released only ten years after the bombing of Japan.

I had my calculator ready myself but I thought better of it.

Well someone might work it out then

But they'll never dare publish after what we've said.

Well I worked it out as one year and 4 days so you would have to stay on the last step for thee days before you get to to top

I couldn't have done it without you though could I?

ok joint effort accepted

OK but I want 75% of the royalties.

When people say Godzilla I assume they mean the GT-R model of Nissan's R32 Skyline.

I never saw the original Godzilla movie, but I saw the 1998 movie of the same name.
