changing my handle

Do you guys know if I can change my handle to something different than BLA1879? do i need to talk to an administrator about that? Seems a little juvenile now. I did create this account a long time ago though!

You are not alone in wanting to change. However, it's generally not done once you have as many posts as you do. Opening up with another ID is frowned upon as well. Let me check the old post tomorrow and see what the "word" was on that, as well as some other checking.

Whistle the "Jeopardy" tune and think of a new name. We are still at "maybe", but the question has been posed.

Good idea. I think there is an 18 month waiting period...a cooling off period if you will.


I'm just basing that on experience with getting the decals and T-shirt swag.


Be that as it may, not seeing too many ads is well worth the ClubFTE cost.
