- Ryan.kois, renaming will leave small traceable hints to your old name. If you want to break the link it would be better to abandon Ryan.kois and register a new account. You'd only be losing the attribution of one edit. Please reply whether or not you wish to proceed with the rename, Cabayi (talk) 20:11, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

- Thank you Cabayi, I see that Htgs has no edits in their 4.5 year history; does this have a bearing on whether I can use HTGS? Or can I perhaps usurp their name (then change again to the all-caps version)? — Hazzzzzz12 (talk) 01:51, 22 September 2020 (UTC)
- Hazzzzzz12, usurpation & later rename seems a reasonable way forward, unless 1997kB who is more experienced than me can suggest a better option. Cabayi (talk) 09:39, 22 September 2020 (UTC)
- @Cabayi: In such cases when conflicted account is inactive and has no mainspace edits, it's best to ignore antispoof match and rename. I usually follow ACC flowchart in such cases. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 09:45, 22 September 2020 (UTC)
