As a security measure and to prevent abuse, we do not allow members to change their own public username.

To change your username, please fill out a NEW technical support ticket, with "Change User Name" as your subject and a choice of THREE new usernames, in preferential order, in the body of the Ticket message.

We ask for THREE so that if any choices are unavailable we can use your next choice.

When choosing usernames, PLEASE try to be original, as names like 'Charles' or 'John' will already have been used in the past. We do not allow duplication of names for security reasons.

Spaces and punctuation marks, or symbols, are not allowed in user names.

An example of a usable username might be:

John_Smith_1234

JohnS_1234

JohnSmith1234
