I was curious. Is their any way to chage the ID that appears on yer posts?
IOW, if after a couple of years, you might like to change it...
I went through the user CP and see no way to manage this.

It is possible on vBulletin sites (such as this) for the moderators/admin to change your user name. Not sure if it is policy here to do so.
PM a mod that you feel may be able to help more.

We will accomodate most any user who wants a name change as long as it isn't a change for the worse and the new name is available.

Cool, I think I'd like to be Eroom Leahcim for a while... :)
It's the name of the devil spelled backward (Michael Moore)
Make any sense?

It makes as much sense as "Otherguy Overby"! :D
However, before I change it, I want to be sure you want the change as we don't change names on a whim. What I'm referring to is your statement: "I'd like to be Eroom Leahcim for a while..." I'm not going to change it just for "a while" and change it to something else later on.

Just for info, and Mal can delete this if it's out-of-order.....
If you have access to another computer/email, you can simply register under another name - then, you can post under both names... but only one per session. This is done on other (less mature) forums to enable a single person to adopt different personas.

bubbygator - that is very bad advice for this forum. Please see Forum Rule #2 (http://www.thehighroad.org/code-of-conduct.html) for the reason. We not only frown upon multiple registrations, it is a bannable offense here.
Otherguy Overby - ok, no problem, we won't change it. I'd still be happy to do it for you, but I just wanted to be sure you wanted a different as well as a permanent name.
