Proverbs31:28 Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 A couple of people have asked me about changing my username and, honestly, I would prefer to as it was a choice made hastily when I registered while in the depths of despair! Soooooo.... is it possible? Can someone tell me how? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustTrying Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 I would like to know if that is possible to.. for reasons of I talk to much on here and I do not want other people that I know , knowing it is me... sometimes I hold back because I am afraid someone I know will read this.

Mark Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 I'm pretty sure that I can do it for you. But I'd like there to be continuity between the old name and the new please, so if people don't mind, please make pubic name change requests and I will honor them (given my imperfect understanding of this software ).

confused12 Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 Thanks lifeless for raising this issue. I had pm Allan to find out if it was possible. So Mark what do you mean about public name change as I would like to change mine from '1confused12' to the new one of 'confused12'Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 So it turns out that it is pretty simple for me to change usernames. I have changed "1confused12" to "confused12" as requested. Anyone else want to do this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ASchwartz Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 I just wanted to say, in a very supportive way, that I do not believe nor do I feel in any way, that any of you "talk too much here." Please do not misinterpret. It's OK with me to change usernames. We need, all of us, to be supportive of one another. So, I hope all of you continue to be here, regardless of username.Allan:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
confused12 Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 lol.... I could not sign in this morning as the request for my name change when through.Thank you Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proverbs31:28 Posted November 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Okay, I have thought long and hard and settled on Proverbs31:28. Thanks, Mark! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 "Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her."that's nice, Proverbs31:27. And a lot more hopeful than your previous name. But that name is too much of a mouthful to use on a casual basis. We need a nickname. I suggest "blessed".

JustTrying Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 OH MARK!~!!! I have decided on the new name of JustTrying .. if it is available.... I normally use Gabby or some form of that in everything I do on the internet... But I do not want to hold back on posting because of what a neighbor or a family member may see.... SOME people just would not understand... know what I mean!! Password will be the same right???Thanks... ME Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 Gabby/JustTrying - It is done. I wish I could solve all problems this easily! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustTrying Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 Thanks!! It is probiably silly.. but I feel better.... I did a search on a name I use often and some of my posts from one site showed up... Not a real big deal just talking about drinking.. but I wonder do all sites you post on eventually show up when someone searches your username? It was just one site and I post on many using the same name but maybe their Program is not set up for privacy....JT ... hey I like that!!!

Catmom Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 I would like to request that if people change their usernames, that the previous user name is listed in their profiles. It is disconcerting & confusing for me to see posts under a strange username & see that they have over 100 posts on this board and I have never heard of them before.Thanks,Catmom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proverbs31:28 Posted November 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 Catmom, I certainly understand how that could be confusing! As one of the ones who changed names, and has over 100 posts, I would offer that each of us who change our names add a line in our signature for 30-60 days after the name change to help people associate the name. I wonder if that would help? I will go add a line to mine now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
