I do not want to change identity, only to change spelling from
Shipsrus TO Ships-R-Us

Shipsrus reminds me of the Greek eatery in Boston, and I have always been about Ships, similar to Toys-R-Us.

Why would anyone want to change their ID, hell you'd have to start all over and build the same reputation.

I can not seem to find the option anywhere. Help?......
IF any moderators read this, just go do it for me........Thanks

As users we do not have the ability to change our nicks, even if it is just a matter of capitalization.

I am not sure whether the admins can do it either. The only way may be to create a new nick. Which brings me to another question along these lines...

I have an old nick that I used some time ago, I have since forgotten the password and can no longer access it. I do not remember what email address was linked to it either. Long story short, it is my preferred, it belongs to me, but I cannot gain access to it. What can be done about this?

I believe it can be done by contacting a moderator...You will see them listed at the bottom of various forums.

I believe you can report your own post, they will get it NOW and voila you have it done......Ships......

Actually, I just double-checked and it turns out that the nick I thought I used to have is not even taken yet. I must have confused it with another forum.

But, I'm not sure I'd want to make the switch over anymore.

Unfortunatly the only one who can make such a change is an Administrator like Neal

<hinting> A large donation would be the appropriate action to take after Neal changed your system name

:D

I think you owe SubSim somewhere in the region of £50,000.

Don't want to pay that much? Then be very careful next time you go
anywhere on a ship. We will be waiting. :arrgh!:

Now, understand, Buddahaid, that nick did not self-delete. You saw it changed by the admins. And I...was never here.

And, I don't want to see any paperwork about it!

They're teasing you, no money order is needed. :03: Sorry if I have not gotten to your PM, I think I have 79 right now since the SH5 interview. I'm buried in work right now, with the server and new SH5 stuff coming up. I will get to it asap.
