    I wouldn't start a new account. I'm not sure what the new rules are about that, but more than one account used to be grounds to ban a member.

    I also don't know what the new regime will do and what they won't. Allen changed my name for me when I was new. I didn't know anything online so used a 5 digit number for a username and people were calling me "Zip code". LMAO.

    If I were you, I'd just put in a support ticket at the help desk and tell them what your username is and what you would like to change it to. I'm fairly sure they won't mind changing it.

    It is. It's very easy indeed. Exactly as Zip Code (just above) suggests, all you have to do is open a Help Desk ticket. (That's the middle one of the 9 links in the horizontal red bar shown near the top of every page in the forum).

    No; don't do that: having more than one account is against the rules.

    Just curious.

    Where is it written you can't have more than one account?

    In one of his ebooks Allen even encourages it.

    I have a few myself.

    Just make sure the new one is decent.

    There is a joke regarding names that goes like this:

    A man goes to the city hall and asks his name to be changed. The mayor tells them that he is busy and that he doesn't have time for meaningless things like this. The guys insist, so the mayor listens him out.

    Mayor: "So, what is your name and why do you want to change it?"

    Random citizen: "My name is John Sh!t. I really don't like it."

    Mayor: "Oh, you're right. You definitely need to change it. I'm so sorry for not taking you seriously before. What is the new name that you would like to change it to?

    Random citizen: "Daniel Sh!t. I think it sounds much better."

      I would also suggest that you use your Name as a User Name. I still regret not using my Name today. It is no big deal but I think it is just easier to Brand yourself instead of using something stupid like 'discrat'

    Sorry, but I find it a little bit funny that it took you six years to come to that conclusion.

    Now if you really want to have some fun, ask us for suggestions for your new user name.

        Good choice. Dennis would have just tried to call you Fred, anyway.
