I emailed [email protected] a month or two ago, with no response.

Edited to be nicer because this forum is the win. It's not like I expected him to respond, I'm sure this forum alone eats up a bunch of his time. I just wanted to know how to get it done. Smile And what's a sock... aside from what you put on your feet.

It's VERY VERY easy to change your user name...Dave just has to type in your new user name. Which he won't do. He doesn't want to be bother with such request .....
Your request is not the first one...many others have also asked Dave to change their user name...Daves' has never responded to four others I know of also. Why is that Mods? What seems to be the hang up on not changing user names? Very easy to register under a new user name...but why do that when it's just as easier to change the user name from those who request it?

It's very easy. I had somebody on my board named waduwari and she wanted her name to be �Ͷѿ͸�, so I typed in the new one, pressed submit, and bingo, she was �Ͷѿ͸�.
Since starting my own board I've realized that you can even change people's passwords, user options, anything...do that of course, and nobody would frequent your board. Surprised

You can even change the layout of the board, make it look like this:
http://drylol.netfreehost.com/
or anything else...

I got my name changed a couple of years ago, and I noticed one of the newer posters here got his changed as well- make sure you make it clear in the subject line.

Dave has been busy of late. But no, mods can't change your names only the big guy can.

I asked him to change mine from Pootytang to Superfly, and it was done within a few days...2 days if I remember...

Keep bugging him!
