I'm sure they can..dangit, I went to try and figure out how I had done it and couldn't remember..send a pm to a mod or start a thread on it and maybe you'll catch someone who know how..Hal is usually good at that kind of thing..

I can't believe I forgot how I had done it..I think I just clicked on my name and went to edit the profile and did it but can't find out where i did..man..

click your own screen name, view user profile, then when that comes up, click the edit profile link on the upper right.

then where? I think you go to display area right? display name? mine doesn't have a spot next to it but could have sworn that when I first established my account that it did..maybe it's only an option for a short period of time..

No, it appears like mil.com and other boards. Once your screen name is registered, there is no changing it. You may have to cancel your account and start all over. I'm not sure what permissions the mods have, but I recall a thread over there about screen names being changed and not sticking. Since you are new, you might try starting all over.

No, mods do not currently have the access to do that, sorry.

Goodness gracious me!

Look at all these disgruntled grunts from mil.com!

So it is safe to disagree with the mods here?

Is there a club in here that gets to violate TOU, while others get banned for responding in kind to the club members?

Note to Airborne Dad: In my original incarnation on mil.com, I got kicked off for firing back at the likes of GW & GH. My first "contacts" with you for MPS, then I started with the mischief.

It would be nice to have a military forum where there's no club that gets to flame people all they want and with no fear of having their TOU violations called.

It would also be nice if one could debate politics without being personally attacked when their views are in the minority. (Some banter and ribbing is certainly fun, but being called a terrorist or America hater is just too childish.)

Irony.

Ain't it a Stinkah?

hon, I was able to change MINE..don't know if it was a glitch or what but I had the same problem..posted asking a question about it..then was able to do it..even kidded around about being able to endlessly change my name and become a 'sybil' of sorts, lol! But thing is if it was a glitch it has been fixed since I think because I can't find it anymore...either that or it's in front of my face which is why I can't find it...or it is only available for a short period of time when you start the account..

I'm not sure which...

Never thought I would see the day when Normie and Hal would be able to get along and debate..man this site is going to be interesting!

I go by Dane46, a few might know me from mil.com. I am here after seeing 5's thread about it. I have nothing against mil.com nor any of the people there or the moderators. I am here because of infopop over there is ridicules! Well one caveat; I am not particularily crazy about the personal attacks made there, though I do feel liberals are open and fair game! I will probably be asking questions alot until I am more at ease with how things work here. Especially acronymns and such (Mil.com was my first forum site).

I certainly see a lot of recognizable handles here!

I am a retired Army E-8, since '93. (The demo's won and I didn't want to see another destruction of the military as I had seen under previous demo regimes.

I am extremely religious, very opinionated though I will try to see your point maybe not immediately, conservative and probably the best way to describe myself is by what my troops everywhere said about me; I will do well anywhere as I like people and can adapt, though "I am an asshole at times I am a lot of fun!"
I am soon to be 59 years old, married to a prior service Army gal (mom was a WAC), and a 10 yr old daughter still at home! We just recently, May 2004, moved from Talahassee, FL to Chincoteague, VA and love it.

Hope to have some lively discussions but am more inclined to watch what others have to say rather than responding.

I have noticed GW's handle mentioned here and would like to say I am more in agreement with him than most who posted at mil.com; so let the chips fall.

I have notice that under the name is a place for location. How do you correct your profile to put up a location? I find that a interesting innovation!

Hey Norman...long time, no see, thanks to GreenieBeanie & GoldenShowers!!!

Yogi

AmVet...Correct me confusion!!! WHUT wuz your previous objection to Norman showing up here???
