    Changing handle to a new one

    Is it possible to change ones handle from the one being used at present to another one? My handle is so similar to others that some confuse me with other forum participants.

    I think Rob is busy with other site issues at the moment (double posting for one).... might be easier to just start a new account and quit using this one...

    You could private message Minnesota Dave (he's a moderator) or just start a new account under the new name.

    Weekends in the summer might not be the best time to catch any of them online though...

    That is easy way
    Some moderators can change the names.
    This site looks like only has one at active moderate Minnesota Dave.
    He has hands full on this site.

    I on another that is half size and there are three active moderates.

    FYI Most sites do not pay the moderators they only do it to help the group out.

    i agree, theres about 3 guys im starting to get confused w/. all have numbers of recentf yrs., and something about melted steel. the other option, would be start a new acct., and introduce urself under ur new name. theres at least 2 guys here that i know of that did that. probaably easier/better for the guys that run this board. so lets get started - what would u like ur new screen name(s be, or u got in mind, so we can helpcomment so it dont haen again?

    By the title I thought you meant the handle on a mig gun, tig torch or stick handle, or just maybe a plasma torch handle.

    Did not think cb radio talk for handle when talking about a user account name.
