Well, I saw a few post that seem to indicate that I can change my name and keep all my posts. I've wanted to do this since way back. When I first got setup and didn't know the routine. So is it possible to change my name that appears from Haleyja to Parker? If so how do I do this magical deed.

I'm afraid you're a day late and dollar short, Parker.

This thread explains the how's and why's of the Name Change Operation you heard about.

Not to despair, however. The software worked without a flaw, and now that's it's been written there's no good reason not to use it. Periodically, that is. To run a sweep of the database, I have to shut down the forums and obviously we don't want to do that very often. I'm figuring about once a month. In the next week or two, I'll try to put together a system to make it work, then I'll post in Announcements again, I hope in time for a March 1 sweep.

Be patient, Parker, and keep your eye on the Announcements forum.
