Does my ingame have to be my account name or the name i show?

what
if you want things you buy to work in-game, you nick has to be the same as your forum account name (any thing in brackets "[]" will be ignored)...
but otherwise your nick can be anything you want it to...
and you can change your forum account name at any time, by going into profile...
and you can change your in-game name any time, by going into toribash set-up...

There are two levels to the forum account's name.

The username: A name that cannot normally be changed, and is always used for identifying purposes.
The display name: A name that is displayed for a specific account, but has nothing else to do with it.

So, ingame name = account name or display name?

Well my account name is= JackMoron
My shown name=HypnoWolf
My ingame=Hypnowolf

So i gotta change my ingame to JackMoron to use my joint?

Hypno, unfortunately, that is correct. :<

Guess something's gotta go wrong sometimes lol

Unfortunately, that is incorrect... a friend of mine with a custom blood color:

Account: Randomkill
Display: Chozo
Game: Chozo
Blood: Works

Guess i'll just try some new techiniques. I'll make sure they're exactly the same ;)
