Name Change Possible?
« on: May 19, 2020, 06:42:53 AM »
Just wondering if it's possible to change your username once you've registered or if you would just have to start over and re-register entirely?  Thanks in advance for any info on this.

Yup. Let a mod know and we'll do it for you. Your sign-in username will stay the same but the handle that's displayed will be the new one
I know it's a genus.

Just to add, I can also change the sign-in name, but it's not as clean of a process- it requires a re-activation step.

Ah, ok. Will contact you if I decide to go that route.  Thanks!
