Adjusting your username?

GRAN_TORINO

Hello everyone,

I am new so if this is in the wrong place apologies!!!!

Ok when I registered I did not realise my caps lock was on hence I now have a username that "shouts" at everyone :eek: (oh I found the smilies )

What I would like to know if there is anyway I can adjust my username so it's not so offensive

Thank you!!

Only by emailing admin, and asking them to change it, but they get very busy, so you might not have much luck.

I don't think there's another way.

dont think you can... just make a new account, forget this one?

GRAN_TORINO

Oh dear, what a silly mistake!!!!

Can I use the same email address do you know? Thank you for your reply

You'd need to use a different email address

sjaypink

no, dont think so.

sign up 4 another email addy if you dont have another one already, only takes 2 mins....

...or just leave yours as it is? it doesnt 'shout' to me?

GRAN_TORINO

Ok, I'll see how I go, I just didn't want to offend with being new!!!!

In normal forum etiquette using capital letters in a post is considered shouting but in a username it isn't really - it is just another way of making your name stand out a bit like some people might use symbols etc.

I would say just leave it as it is

I can't see anything wrong with it - it certainly doesn't offend me in any way!

If you want, you could still email admin and just ask them if they can change it from Upper to lower case ~ they can only say No!
