Title: Change of username?
Post by: Dubieman on 25 Jul 2004, 02:21:28
Same as above, is there any way to change the username? Or not?

Cause mine is kinda stupid now that I think back to when I started... ::) :P

You simply use your profile option (found next to Search), as you would have done when you changed away from "Dubieman". ;)

I know to go to the profile button and then it shows me the spaces where I can change password, nickname and so on. But my username is already at the op and unchangable....

I'll look at it again. :P

Not the nickname... the username.... :P

The original name I have to use to sign in. Or when I post a comment on a mission or addon in there respective depots.

I think it goes like this.

The Username is the name of your account. That's technical. I guess the database uses it to know you are you.

The Name is as it says below, This is the displayed name that people will see, so that's the part you want to change.

You can't change your account name, but you can change the alias of your account. So if you don't want to use the 'always stay logged in' then yes, you have to type in GuiltyRoachKillar every time you come to visit us, but if you change the account alias as GRK we'll know you as GRK.

Hope that's accurate enough and makes sense :)

Yeah makes sense, Dubieman is my account name. GuiltyRoachKillar is the name ppl see in the forums and on stuff I submit.

I was wonderin if I could change the account name?....
