Q: Change Forum Username

I dont know how I ended up with a username that advertises both my name and city of residence (I would never choose such a name if I knew it would be posted publicly), but for privacy reasons I'd like to set my forum username to something that isn't so personal. Searching the forums has led me to believe that there is no way for users to do this, but that mods might be able to assist me. How can I contact a moderator to request a change of username?

While I don't have identity privacy issues with my username I'd still like it changed if that is permitted. Please and thank you.

You're welcome. Always glad to help. Unfortunately I didn't get Mr Vampire's name changed as of yet.

Well there could be two reasons. One, they may just leave it because it isn't a security issue. Two, it is only 7:25 in California. May still be early for the hosts.

Ethan is the East Coast Representative of the Change Forum User Name Forum and currently off right now. Is Joshua Stewart the name you want changed ? Let me know and I'll alert the hosts.
