Frustrating, what am I missing?

[Summers22]

I can't seem to change my username or edit my avatar. I'm on 5 other forums, it's all incredibly easy to change on all 5, but this one is frustrating enough that my time may be short lived......can a moderator or admin help out?

well, while you're still here I'll say HI

Changing your name is gonna be a moderator thing.

Changing your avatar though... Easier than falling down some icy steps.

Don't worry, be happy.

Almost there. That is and Administrator thing. Only Jim and Ryan have that access.

There is no edit button on my avatar, not on mobile or laptop, I researched the threads here on changing it (collective GASP, a newbie used the search function), lol. Some say I may need 10 posts to prove I'm not a scammer.

 

[Summers22]

See, no edit button and 10 posts. I hate being faceless, lol

maybe you have to log our and back in for the count register?

 

[Summers22]

Tried that, also cleared cookies and site settings, still no edit button.

@Jim Oaks will be here once he drags his ass out of bed....

 

[Summers22]

I appreciate it, but Jim, get your rest, lol!

 

[Summers22]

Well maybe it's 15 posts, my edit button FINALLY showed up! Or Jim worked his magic!

Now to get my username changed to Summers22! When it asked for name when registering, I assumed it wanted my full name, not my username.

Sorry, I was just looking into this. I had to create a usergroup for new people to go into until they hit X number of posts, and then limited them from being able to message members due to spam bots....

 

[Summers22]

Awesome, makes sense! Can I get my username changed to Summers22 @Jim Oaks ?
