Dear All,
As you may or may not recall, back in the mists of time, many long-term users were required to 'update/change' their original usernames to facilitate one of the previous board changeovers. As a consequence of this fact many members' names still bear vestigial numbers, digits, prefixes and suffixes that they never originally desired.
Given that it is now a doddle to make such changes--just a couple of clicks behind the curtain--I've been contacting regular members on a fairly random basis to ask whether they'd like to revert to their original name. This seems a more sensible course of action: I'm now happy to make any and all such alterations if you would like to PM me your (caps-sensitive) preferred name. The only exception is if some sneaky devil has subsequently registered your original name again, in which case I can't very well delete them to give it back to you.
I'm not going to open the market to total identity changes, but if you'd like reversions or corrections please do get in touch.
Oh, and similarly, if you have an old inactive ID and a new active one; merging IDs is similarly simple. Just send me the link to both profile pages.
Regards
Yith
