I'm searching for a facility to change my user name, more in-line with my age bracket.

Dave22 your are a lot older than your name suggests....lol. However it is a good point. What  with the  ability to sign on with Facebook or Twitter where your username may well be a lot different from your forum name an ability to change names would be helpful. Otherwise, as I found on one forum  using one of the soocial pages leads to more than one registration. In that case against the rules. Probably the same here. But as you say, how do you change it to reflect a single membership of the forum.

Even then you may not want to use the social pages to login for privacy reasons.

yeah, thanks mate, I'm older than dirt, no doubt about it.  It's only mildly annoying that I can't change my user name, no worries here.  I don't seem to be getting a response, anywho.  Mebbe some day.

Hi Dave, I'm not sure that there is a method to change usernames... I can't change mine is all I know! Jay might be able to help you if he reads this thread

I am asking the same question on a different forum and it seems the only way is to get your "account " deleted and start again. That would be up to the forum manager, or whatever the position is called. Maybe ask Jay.

If I remember correctly a couple of years ago all the Orbx developers and staff changed their fictional forum names to their real ones. E. g. "Mango" became Heiko Glatthorn then.
I'm sure Jay will tell us if it's also possible for ordinary forum members :)
