I think this is the correct forum. I’ve been here for awhile now and many know my posting style, politics, wit :rolleyes: , sarcasm and biting sense of humor. Some may also know the rough side of me. 😃 So, that said, I’m thinking of changing my Dopername to something a little more fitting than a word used for a casual golfer. From what I understand you’re allowed a one-time change. (Not sure if anyone’s done this before so no idea if it’s a legal thread. Close it if not, please.) Any and all suggestions will be considered. (Well, maybe not all. Depends on what kind of mood **Dio** , **Reeder** and **elucidator** are in when they offer a new one) 😉 So how about it? Any ideas what would fit me better? ---

I would keep it as it is…I think you’re very recognizable even to apolitical people (like me). But if you’re intent on changing it, well, I got no suggestions. Sorry. ---

There was a thread around here recently with potential user names, perhaps you could find something there? ---
