Rules How to change my user name or close my account here.

    I would like to change my username. How I do this? I really need to change it to a more related name. Stupid me I registered a name I do not like now - i just did not know any better.

    Apparently I cannot register under a different name - I do not want to break the forum rules.

    Could you just close my existing account and then I open a new one under the name I want? I do not mind starting from zero posts again.

    Do you have any suggestions please? I really need to do this. I think that overall I have a good reputation.
    :)

    That is expensive for me as I am just starting out.

    Does my existing user name get cancelled for inactivity - lets say I stop posting here for 6 months or so.

    Or do you keep inactive users forever?
    thx:)

    I never heard it before that mods are deleting account due to inactivity for certain period
    is it true mods?

    Well, if you create a new account you're going to get banned for duplicate accounts, so you might as well pay for it. :) It's a one-time thing after all, or wait it out till you make enough money from the forum - then get it. :)
