Is there a way to change one's username easily and efficiently in the forums?

thanks, all.

Yes. Use another email address and start over.

+ 1.

I tried for weeks to get my forum username changed, and the emails just got ignored.

Abes service has been exemplary for me in every way apart from that one little thing. no biggie.

If there was a way, I certainly wouldn't be Sales Dude McBoob. Sparklepuff wouldn't be Sparklepuff, and Forge wouldn't be... no, Forge would still be Forge.

So long as Robert Henke posts as Robert Henke and not his preferred moniker Bert, then there isn't a way to change your login.

You can either carry on as toddreyn, or start over and leave all the hard work you've carved out for your good name behind you.

That's quite the legacy he has there, 4 posts in the last 7 years. :)

Strange, just did a search for your email address and could only find a question for the customercare team, but nothing forum related.

However, changing usernames is not possible, you can only set up a new account - but you should at least get an answer to your request....

Cheers,
Dom
