Do I have to reset my account in order for it to change? I want to be called something different.

You can't change your own name.

That's something that can only be done by an Admin, and I think that's only Alex right now. Also, as I understand it, you aren't likely to be able to get it changed.

Nor are you allowed to open a new account just to get a new name. These things are supposed to be thought out the first time around. Not that mine was; it's pretty lame, but it's always available so I live with it.

Rules. Can't live with them, can't live without 'em ;)

Thanks for the help. I just keep it that way and live with it.
