How To Change Your Username
Posted: Aug 27, 2005 3:22pm
I have re-enabled the ability for you to change your own username. When you do, a message will be posted in the New Member Introductions forum to let people know.
<b>The procedure listed below no longer applies.</b>
________________________________________________________________________________
Here is the procedure to change your username:
1. Post your request here so that others will be aware of your name change. Keep it simple, something like: Please change my username from {original username} to {new username}
2. Send me a private message repeating your request. Make sure to include a link to your post so that I can easily verify that you have followed instructions correctly. (To get the URL, go to your post and click the little white icon next to the date.)
If you just post here and don't follow step number 2, then your name won't get changed.
This is not automated! I have to change these usernames by hand, so please people, keep these requests rare.
