I don't live in Dallas anymore, and haven't for about 9 years. Can you change my name to "Phil Smith"?

Why not Phil Connors since you are changing names. Or Ned, Ned Ryerson?

If I was asking questions, & I'm not, I'd ask why it took you 9 yrs. to request this change.. :) I sometimes confuse you with Paul Bass, another Texan. Now I won't. :laugh2:

I tried and got this message:"That name is already in use, please choose another." So I tried my full name. Same thing. Then names that surely no one is using and *still* got the same massage.

I had to look that up. I've never seen that movie for some reason. I'll have to watch it.

I get that all the time!

 

OK, not really. Not ever actually.

You should be here:

Tell me what you are entering. It wants your new desired title, which should be "Phil Smith".

Then your password.

 

If it's not working, maybe you have another browser open? Or try a different browser.

Pablo, weird, I can't get it to work. This is after I changed it to Phil Smith, entered my password and hit save changes.

I am having the same problem.  I misspelled SouthShoreRacing as ShouthShoreRacing and I want to change it.  No matter what name I enter I get the message "That name is already in use, please choose another."  I want to change my display name to South Shore Racing or Paul Ryer

I think I can fix both problems for you, guys.

 

Gimme a few...

Done in both cases.

 

Paul,

 

Your log-in name had the same misspelling, so I changed both.
