Change user name

#1 Post by CrazyTPFan » Tue Nov 06, 2018 7:06 pm

I want to change my name on this forum and keep my same account. But, I can't figure out how to change my user name. Any help is welcome and will be greatly appreciated.

Probably need to PM an admin.

The efficiency of two screens equally sized with equal numbers if pixels are equal. The time spent by a 4:3 user complaining about 16:9 is proportional to the inefficiency working with a 16:9 display, therefore the amount of useful work extracted is equal.

Given there is no option to do so, so far, in the UCP, I would imagine that asking an Admin would currently be the only way.

I doubt the option unlocks at a higher post count , given my knowledge of phpBB forums (there is a caveat though!).

It may, however, become unlocked** if you are placed/migrated to a different user group based on post count (Thats the caveat) and whether or not it is allowed for that particular user group.
