How do you change your "user name"... - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

...I need to make mine less informative. After a guy this week was going nuts and ranting and calling people out...I feel I would like to be a bit more private about my name. So, anyone know how to change a user name? Or the admin I should be talking with? Thanks.

Ok my opinion on this. I have always used my full name on forums. I will stand behind what I say with my name and not hide behind a screen name. I understand why some may not want to do this but this is how I have always played this game.

I don't think that you can actually change your username.
The easiest thing to do is just log out and then sign up again under a different name. You will then have 2 names and just use the one that you want and forgot about the old one.
I use 2 myself. One for my regular posts and one for official HEROES ON THE WATER posts.
Hope this helps.
