I've been trying to setup a new user account but so far have been denied. I'm not trying to avoid anyone or anything connected to my current account, its just that I'm trying to consolidate all of my internet forum accounts under one username to make things easier and to have one singular "identity" (or I guess you could say "alter-ego"). I also suffer from OCD (all kidding aside), and not having all my internet forum accounts under the identical username drives me absolutely insane (seriously). I'm not sure how to go about this in regards to having the mods helping me with this, I'm not trying to troll or cause a problem on here. I've been a member on this site under several different usernames/accounts since 2006 (this current one is my latest). This new username/account is the LAST ONE I will request, for sure this time. Mods, please contact me to see if we can do this. Sorry if this causes an unforeseen problem, please don't lock my current account.






- Mike

No, I think I explained the reasons why in the OP. I'll even post a vid on youtube to validate my request if that's what needed. I really didn't want to make this thread but I wasn't sure what else to do.

This. You should probably show your DL in the vid to fix any indentity issues as well. Maybe with a sworn statement never to use a different username. And possibly list all the other usernames you have used in the past so there is no confusion.

If I was staff I would tell you to fuck yourself as you have already violated the COC by having multiple accounts and you can't even pony up $24 dollars to be a team member

Yeah that also has something to do with it. I think I'm going to wait to put the vid up until I hear a response from one of the mods/site staff.

Adding an option to change your username for team members would be nice. I'd also like to consolidate my usernames/passwords.

What does posting a video have to do with anything?
What were all of your past screen names?
You have done this several times and you don't know how to make the request or who to contact?

Did you know that if staff changes your name, all data on your old account is lost, even though your join date and post count remains the same?
They don't do that very often.

Edit to add; if you were a team member, I would post a link that shows why it is not done frequently, and how it can turn out badly.

Second edit; So...that part I mentioned about join date and post count. Your statements in this thread do not line up with the info posted in the thread that you can't read because you are not a team member.

Here is the thread I'm thinking of. The last page has pertinent info posted.

I just called Ed and he said this is what he needs.  He also requested that you make a sign with both your old and new usernames and also for you to be wearing "those shorty shorts like the younguns wear".

I asked staff about a year ago about changing usernames - the advice I got was "abandon your account and make a new one".

I didn't want to be a '12er, so I just said "fuck it".

I've not been a professional photographer for almost 10 years.

I think you would need a new e-mail address to do that, or it would be called having multiple accounts.
