Posted by Indy Rail on Thursday, December 18, 2014 3:40 PM

I'm sick of this dumb TrAcKr76 name and I want it changed to Outlaw Railroader but I don't know how. Am I missing something? -OutlawCowboy

Afraid not.  Go over to the right under your user name and click on  Help.  Scroll down to Change Avatar.  Just below that is a question on changing your screen name, unfortunately, it says no.

Oh well.

Have fun,

Richard

From time to time I have wanted to change mine also

The only way would be to create a new idenity but you loose your recognition by other forum members. That could be good or bad, depending.

I was thinking that I could put "Alias Superbe" as a tag line.

Seeing as how you only have seven post, write the boss and see if he will rub you out , so you can start anew.Laugh

I am LION. The Broadway LION. Name of my railroad is the Route of the Broadway LION. Kinda makes sense. On other forums I am a tiger. The people at Tiger Direct love the pictures of tigers that I send to them with my orders. Well, the like my orders too, they have been my exclusive computer provider since 1998, and I have the computer boxes in storage to proove it.

What is in a name. If it is not a big cat, then you are probably missing something.

I'm glad I have never had the desire to be anyone other than myself.

Send Steve Otte a PM and request the change. If not then?you may have to request nuking you're current account and re-registering onto the site.

The thing you need to make sure of BEFORE you delete your current account is that your email address will not remain in the system. That may prevent you from re-registering onto the forum because the system will only allow one registration per email address. At least that's my understanding.

   Have fun with your trains

LION is network administrator. Him has mail server sitting right next to him. Him can create any email account him likes.

LION@BroadwayLION.com works just fine. Even my CAT has an email account. And she will reply to any message you send to her. It is set up as an auto-responder so that I can check that others email programs are working.
