    Site admin has previously told me that it is possible - so one of you must be wrong..??

    Can I also add that I think your answers here are rather dismissive and slightly patronising.

    Hi bomberharris72,

    It *is* technically possible for a username to be changed, but in order to prevent a flood of 'can i change my username?' requests, plus other issues, we tell people they can't change it.

    We've had instances, for example, where people have signed up using their email address as their username - which is obviously not advisable, and in such instances we're happy to change it.

    Hope this helps.

    Matt
