.josh Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 Most boards do not allow the user to change their own username. Although, most boards do allow for that option (the admin usually do not set it for true, that is). Maybe if you asked an admin real nice they can do it manually for you? Offer marshmallows or something.I suggest you change your name to Parrot, cuz everytime I see your name I keep wanting to say Parrot [img src=\"style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/laugh.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":laugh:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"laugh.gif\" /] Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/11463-where-do-i-change-my-display-name/#findComment-43078 Share on other sites More sharing options...
moberemk Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 Take a look at the News forum at the bottom. It tells you very specifically that, unless it is a matter of security, the admins WILL NOT change your username.

moberemk Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 No there aren't. On certain forum systems there are, but not on this one, I'm afraid.
