Hey guys,

Got a total shit question for you—is there any way to change my username? I’ve been digging through the settings menu like a maniac but I can't find anything.😳 , look, I know this has probably been explained a million times already, but if someone could just point me in the right direction, I’d really appreciate it.

Look, you can't just swap out your handle whenever you feel like it—you're stuck with whatever you picked at the start.

You could try hitting up the admin to see if they'll do it for you, but honestly... you’d better have a seriously good reason if you want them to actually listen.

I mean, what's even wrong with this one?

Since you’ve only got one single post to your name, you could just go ahead and sign up again under a different handle.

Rachel Brooks63 makes a fair point, though since you’ve only got one post to your name, I doubt it'll cause much stir. It gets messy when someone with a massive post count and an established "online persona" decides to switch things up—it tends to throw everyone off.

slycrane94 might be able to point you in the right direction if you ask one of the admins. 🙂

Why bother? Wouldn't it be easier to just have an admin swap the nickname?

A slightly smaller headache than the first one.😬

I suppose this case is even more difficult than the first one.😬

That’s precisely why I’m reaching out to the admins.

I’d change my avatar, but I’m completely out of ideas.

Mr.Ex.President said:I'll handle your sub-account for you😬
It will say banned😍

That isn't really necessary; I suppose I could just do that myself.😁

Personally, I'd be fine with my handle being changed to banned—if it isn't already taken... 🙏 🙏 🙏

Lately, I’ve been feeling this nagging urge to change my username—if only it were actually possible. 😬

It’s that classic case of lacking inspiration during the initial registration process, and then you're stuck living with it for years on end. 😁

Just ask one of the admins; maybe slycrane94 can help you out. 🙂

Why? Wouldn't it be easier if the admin just handled the nickname change themselves?

What did I ever do to you to deserve this extra work? I was actually having a relaxing day... I'm working in the lab and now you've completely ruined my flow. 😁

You were talking about some wedding and then suddenly—nothing.😠

Anyway, let's not get bogged down in the details.😉 😁

Fair enough... but I guess we could try something like: "Evil Spammer Topic Destroyer"???
