Moderators:

I am not trying to make more work for you guys, I promise. But is there a way you guys could change my username but keep everything else related to this account? Just wondering as I may want to change it. I can just start all over and have you guys DELETE this one if need be. Thanks

MrG is not keen on the idea of people changing their usernames Keith.

I think he forsees an avalanche of similar requests once he does it for one person.

Sorry :(

Roger.... Well I may create another account and request a forum moderator to DELETE this account. There are good reasons for the change which I did not think of when I first signed up. I will have to make the change on a couple of other forums as well. It sucks to do it cause it's extra work but it's a privacy issue as well. Thanks for replying though.

Keith

EDIT: cleaned it up

if you do this your current post count wont be restored. on many forums iam on, they allow you to change name at least 3 times per year..guess its different process elsewhere. RIP your old acct

From my prespective, winvista club is a very good forum for all things windows related.
They have helped me and many others in the past. Excellent hints and advice!

Post counts aren't that serious to me. Would I like to keep them and the actual posts that I've participated in? Sure. But I think more than anything, I want people to realize that I'm the same person, not some new guy (I guess I am still new, registering last week and all) :P
