    Is it possible to change a username, or would I have to create a new account. I created Hunter88 for no other reason than I didn’t feel like straining myself in coming up with something more creative at the time I registered. I haven’t thought of a suitable replacement yet, but I’m bored with my user name and thinking that I should think of something that is a bit more unique.

    Send a PM to BrianK. He should be able to change it for you.

    Your logins will stay the same but you can change your display name at any time.

    Go to your “my home.”

    Scroll towards the bottom.

    Click on ” Personal information, email, password, etc. ”

    The first entry field on that page is labeled “display name.”

    Enter in your new name and then scroll to the bottom to “submit.”

    Don’t forget… your display name changes but your login name (login name + password” never change.

    This is one of those things that only the user can change. We can approve the request for the change of display name but we can’t change it for them without jumping through a few hoops.

    …and this is a good thing…as your display name wouldn’t be Wade any longer.

    How about “The Chad”, or “SWC” for small walleye catcher, or “Walleye Chaser.” Just kidding with ya neighbor. Maybe Riggin Guy can help with some titles too.
