    name change

    Maybe I missed it, but I want to change my user name. We now have 3 Randy's conversing on X-Ray.

    Is there a way to change my user name to "R Moe"?

    Re: name change

    Why not register as "The Real Randy"?

    I did that on another forum when I found that a usurper had already registered my name.

    That's way too long, many know me as R Moe.

    I didn't realize there was a prior Randy, when I chose Randy Moe.

    It's getting confusing.

    Perhaps Randy the second, or Randy II...

    You will need a note from your mother. Mothers are sensitive about these sorts of things.

    And the change will need to be approved by Homeland Security.
    You might be hiding a bump between the words.

    O, dear, mother, was so yesterday...

    Mom would prefer R W Moe, like dear dead Dad.

    We all miss him.

    All I know is one let the domain lapse and I finally got it.

    There are 20 Randy Moe's on Linkedin and at least 3 deceased. So much to do, so little time...
    If one of these Randy Moe’s takes the username you want to give up, would you start a new thread about wanting it back? ;^)

    OK, good memory, Heroique!

    I'll keep it, I have 670 posts with it here, and some on APUG and elsewhere.

    I do use a more 'biker' handle on MC forums.

    User ID changes can only be done by moderators or administrators. Use the "Contact Us" link at the bottom of the page to contact administrators if you still want a change.

    Of course, getting your mother's approval may delay things.
