TrixieFaux Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Hi, is there a way for me to change my user name from my whole name to a screen name? I can't find a way to edit this in my profile settings... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursula Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 I actually sent an email about this when I first joined and never got a reply. It would be nice to know though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valerie Vargas Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 i'd imagine that's not possible unless requested to a forum mod or owner. on twitter you can change your username willy nilly but i think most places online, the username you sign up is the one you get stuck with.

Ursula Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 gregor - the problem is it doesn't say anywhere that if you connect to Facebook your entire first and last name will automatically become your user name. So you assume like any other website I've ever signed up for that it will ask you to create a username. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Flores Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Having my full name is kind of weird, I agree. It kind of makes you go high profile automatically and in my opinino makes me look like I am trying to be a big deal.Would prefer to have a username but now that I am signed up and settled I am indifferent about it.

Ursula Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 yeah that's how I feel about it to, I would still like to be able to maybe just use my first name though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Flores Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 I edited that post thinking that i worded it wrong, and someone might take offense, but glad you got what I was saying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dari Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 I just looked, it doesn't seem to be one of the things I can change either, although I can change your signature or avatar. Steve? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Flores Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Just don't give me Bubbleberry's avatar and I will keep my full name up there no problem. dari 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zillah Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 If I change my user name, will I still be able to connect through Facebook in the same way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 If I change my user name, will I still be able to connect through Facebook in the same way? I think so, but not 100% sure - we can try it and then change it back if needed..? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zillah Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Yay! Now we know it works! Now people also won't think I'm trying to be American Indian, as opposed to keeping anonymous on the internet. Steve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
