Hi guys,

I have noticed since changing my username in BF2 to dMwVenom my medals and  achievements are no longer being recorded in the BFHQ section of the game.

The medal annoucements still come up in game but when I check the BFHQ there is nothing there.

Anyone got a clue why this might be?

Mhhmm, weird, you're also not found here; http://bf2s.com/player/122290616/
 
This player has been looked up and found to have less than 100 global points.
BF2S.com does not track players with less than 100 points.
This player is due for an update in 01:55:26.
 
Might have a better look tonight.

Did you change your username by adding the clan tag button or did you register again?

That site says you've only been playing since 6th Jan

I think, after getting 1000 points, you get recorded, stats, medals, ribbons, although, I might be thinking of a different ranking system.
There's a little box somewhere you can put in your clan Abbreviation. Possibly in the 'select account' area.
I'm sure your ranking will show up sometime, it might just be them being lax.

Well you can't just change your name unfortunately. that doesn't work. (hence I'm Pendragon and not Penfold there).

The only facility is for you to add a clan tag to front of your name.

However if you've registered as =B2Z=VENOM then the only thing you can do is add the dmw tag in front of that i.e. -=[dMw]=-=B2Z=VENOM. however if you registered venom and then the B2Z bit as a clan tag you can change it.

To do that you go to the accounts screen and before you log in with your original name look to the top and I think theres' a screen which lets you add your clan tag.

Have a go and let me know.

What If I delete them both and start from scratch will I start recording offical status?

I have no idea why your new name isn't recording. They should be running in parallel.

I would guess it's something to do with your profile - I would suggest a reinstall but also make sure the residue folders with your profile are also deleted which aren't necessary done with an uninstall (check my documents folder for instance).

no our server is not ranked. It costs too much money to have a ranked server.

Maybe that's why you haven't gone up in rank :g:...:lmfao:
 
BTW, I've looked up the price of ranked servers a bit back and as BB says, it costs to much.
