    Default new username - Please

    When I initially registered, I entered a username that was easy for me to remember. But after posting several questions and getting replies, I find that my username is a bit too close to at least one very prominent and active member. I would feel better if I could change my username.
    I have been signing posts (at various points within the post) with my first name to hopefully avoid confusion.

    If I register again, with a different username, can I or a moderator remove the old username?
    Can a moderator have current active posts forwarded to the new registration (i'm not opposed to closing them and possibly re-opening if really needed..

    Thanks,
    Chris

    Send me a PM with your desired new username, and I will change your existing account.
    You will still have your posts and PMs. Just the username will be different.

    This thread is not here in any meaningful sense. Every post re-identifies it.

    I do not know if this thread is alive or dead till click on the thread title to see. I think it could be both.
