How do I change my username?
« on: March 29, 2021, 07:31:19 PM »
Hello, I looked around the main page but I couldn’t find a “contact us” link so I decided to post here. I made my username around 6 years ago and have only made a half dozen posts.  I’d like to change it. Is this possible? Thanks in advance and God Bless.

I'm pretty sure if you hit up one of the mods they can help you out.

 I know it’s a lot of work and a job they don’t like doing. I’ve seen it happen but it’s rare they allow it.  :twocents:

If the admins have write/update access to the database... it's likely very possible to do; but I wouldn't get my hopes up LOL

And admins: if you do have access but you ain't savvy with database query stuff PM me and I can help you out.

:yeah: I’ve only seen it done once since I’ve been a mod. It’s definitely not the norm or something that happens often by any means.

It’s about 100x simpler than that. It takes about 90 seconds to do.

The reason we don’t like changing usernames doesn’t have anything to do with the complexity of actually doing it.
