I have heard that there is no way to change it and have your new name attached to all your old posts and threads. This idea came to mind, you could attach a signature that goes at the bottom of all your posts(some people have sayings phrases or quotes or stuff like that). In yours you could put aka chrisandsarahb or formerly known as chrisandsarahb. Then if you really wanted to show you had been around a while with 79 posts you could go over to bilge and start a thread and post away til you hit 79. Then after a year or two everyone will know you by your new name and you can remove your signature.

You could also go back an edit all your old posts to include your new name but what a pain this would be.

There is no easy remedy, they should maybe put a warning to new TCers to choose a name wisely as it will stay with you your whole Tiki life. At party's and events this is how people will know you and it is your identity.

ok hope this helps,

:)
