I made this account in july 2018 and i don't really like my name anymore.
I plan to post on forums more often now.
Is there a way i can change my name?

Kind regards

' Thought I'd add to this thread rather than start another.

I recently changed my account name on the main website and would like my forum name to match.
With any luck Klonan (or any mod) will see this; Would you be so kind as to change my name to "Angstrom_Trilobite" please.

Thanks in anticipation,
Angstrom_Trilobite

Name Change

Post by MakeItGraphic »

Hi my name used to be MakeItGraphic its that way on factorio main site, steam, and the mod portal.

I had a lot of issues with the forums before logging in, and password issues and somehow I ended up having to re-register.

Is there any way the old account can be merged, or deleted and this ID changed?

I am not exactly sure what you're asking, but I have changed your forum name to match your Factorio name

Sorry I didn't find solution in forum FAQ or settings, so I'd post here.
Can you please change my name at this forum to L32?

By the way, many thanks for the one-time oppotunity to change my ingame/site name, I did it myself, worked flawlessly, and after re-login my ingame name on an ongoing map changed, which is great.

Change username?

Post by spiro9 »

I'd like to be able to switch my username - I still use the alias peefTube but more recently I've been going by spiro9. Is there any way to use both aliases, perhaps to change my username to

Code: Select all

peefTube | spiro9
?

Send a pm (personal message, board internal mail system) to one of the devs (preferably Klonan) or info@factorio.com or in doubt to one of the webmasters (for example me or Koub or Löwchen)
Cool suggestion: Eatable MOUSE-pointers.

Actually Ssilk, with just my global moderator profile, I don't have the privileges to rename users on the forum. I think one needs Administrator privilege, which I don't have, but I think you do :).

Me. You can also send it to one of the other webmasters (e.g. Koub or Löwchen), which forward the PM to Klonan or me. :)

I would like my name changed to: Lizzy
I tried to check if it's taken, apparently not, but I'm not 100% how the search works. If not available, it can be: neigh-Lizzy
