Possible to change alias w/o new account?

Moderators and other Dopers–

The recent board hack has made me realize that it’s stupid to use my current SMDB alias, which is identical to my username on many more sensitive websites (even tho my password is different). Question: is it possible for a moderator to change my alias/handle to something else on request, or do I just have to start a new account and lose my humble posting count?

It is possible, and it’s been done manny times. Email TibaDiva or Lynn Bodoni. It will be done. You brought chocolate, right?

Make that TubaDiva.

Chocolate makes me sick–can’t stand to look at the stuff. Will carob do? :slight_smile: Just kidding–but big virtual Hershey’s Kisses to all mods and especially TubaDiva and Lynn who are about to get my e-mail.

BTW, thanks beatle! :smiley:

Changes made. Don’t forget to modify your profile if you wanna be more discreet.

Also, the “thread starter” and “last post by” fields are determined by what you signed in as at the time, not your current user name, as you may have noticed. For this reason, if you log in as pUBliCbLasT, that’s how it will be displayed in those fields, while your post will still be labelled PublicBlast.
