User name

How can I change it? I don’t know why I chose -midnight.

Thank you in advance for any replies

You can’t. You can start with a new user name but that means you start fresh.

U can change it under Profile>User account

That changes the display name not the user name.

]You can’t. You can start with a new user name but that means you start fresh.

I would have to create a new account?

Since 2014, the username is your email.

Yes, but that isn’t used/displayed in the forums (logon/validation only), that is the Display Name.

What “-midnight” is talking about is the user name:

She is inadvertently talking about the Display Name.

As Secondmineboy mention:

My guess, is he has interpreted (correctly) what -midnight wants as changing what is displayed alongside posts.

Well, I usually don’t dare to guess what she means, so I answer her questions to the point. :wink:

You have to learn to read between the lines :wink:

Shouldn’t be necessary, but you never know- :wink:

I don’t want to create a new account so I’ll just keep the user name I have now. I still don’t understand why I can’t change it. Guess it doesn’t really matter.

EDIT
typo

You can change it “Profile/Account Settings”.

Thank you CraigB I might do that.

As already stated, you can change the display name but, you can’t change the user name.

If you had understood the first post correctly (How can I change it? I don’t know why I chose -midnight) you would have known it was the displayed name which she intended to change.

“User Name” how do I change it was the question.
We aren’t in the guessing game. :slight_smile:
Have a Happy Easter.

“”“How can I change it? I don’t know why I chose -midnight”“” was the question and statement, User name was the “Title” that was incorrectly stated but easily understood once the subject matter was read

Have it your way if that makes you feel better.

Thanks, now it’s a Happy Easter ;D

Thank you CraigB I might do that.
