bummer, know what you mean. the only way is to deactivate your profile and start all over again.

Hi Jadegate,

Smokeybette is correct. You would have to deactivate this account and create a new account with a new email address.

Hope this helps,

Kim

How about an option to have a display name different from you user name? I did not see anything on the page when I signed up that my user name would be my display name. Sometimes you choose a user name you can remember, but need a catchy display name. Other times, you may choose the user name Stud4Fun and realize that you are sending the wrong message or grow up.

If people have to deactivate and create new user names, the availability of user names will become strange and limited depending on popularity and name recycling.

I realize that these comments might be better in Features and Suggestions, but they seem to occur when one sees something lacking in the help forum. The Admin has the right to cross-post and edit.
