    Hi everyone,

    A moderator contacted me to tell me I need to change my username.

    How do I do this?

    Would appreciate help with this.

    Thanks.

    You're getting yours done direct by an admin, so just reply to the PM with the new choice.

    If I change mine, will people be able to find me?
    I want a low profile. But I like my name still.
    Some anonymous assholes keep sending me ****e on my formspring thing. It's just annoying that they can get on there just to tell me to piss off.
    99% of it is good though.

    Your UID will stay the same, and the previous nick field should show the old name (if the admin remembers).

    Why not just remove the link to your formspring that's in your sig then? :confused:

    But that's why it's there. It would be giving in. I shouldn't have to remove it.
    If they PM me on boards they would be banned but on formspring people are anonymous.
    I'd say it's the same person over and over again. I'd love to know who it is, I have a few ideas anyway.
