We wanted to give our paid members a little heads up that we've entered the final stages of testing our scripts for purging suspended usernames -- this means that starting right now, more and more suspended usernames are starting to get purged.

So if there's a suspended username you've had in mind for a rename, you'll want to make sure you keep your eye on it. Setting up a notification is a great way to get the best chance to score a specific username -- just visit the following URL, replacing the 'exampleusername' at the end with the username you want to watch:

http://www.livejournal.com/manage/subscriptions/user.bml?journal=exampleusername

At that page, the 'username has been purged' notification is the last one in the list -- simply select the ways you'd like to be notified when the purge has taken place (email, IM, Inbox, etc) and click Save. Once the name is purged, you'll be notified by the selected method(s).

Remember, a rename costs $15 USD (or 1500 tokens), and can be performed through the LJ Gift Shop right over here. If you need information about the options you'll be asked about when you rename (such as whether to keep your Friends list and so on), please see this FAQ link.

Thanks!
