Changing User Name
61 Answers
Why can't anyone change their Username on AB? Its the only Forum I'm on that does not give this facility. To avoid people changing their name every month (which I doubt would ever happen) you could have, for example, one change of name per year based on the email used by the user. What is the reasoning behing this please? ( holds breath....)

I've put two requests in to change my name to Bakers Dozen as when I joined I did not realise that capital letters were classed as shouting. One was in the "amnesty" and a previous request was by email. Both requests were ignored, and I don't even want to change my name or my profile, so you'll all just have to put up with me a noisy old girl.
