Discovery Gaming Community

Is there any way, that anyone knows of, to change your wiki username?

I did look.. and look again. But, you know! haha

Cheers! (y)

Not in the Discovery wiki. We don't have the RenameUser extension installed.

You could just abandon the old account and create a new one however.

Didn't think so.. I did check a few times. No worries, thanks for the info! I'll probably just add a link to my profile on my user page

Hi, the trouble is, that creating new accounts is not possible. It throws an error:

It looks like that happens only if you give an email address.

It's fixed, sorry about that

Interesting, I never thought of trying that, email is good. But thanks for info
