If you are still experiencing issues with your username since the switch, please email [email protected] with your new username, old username and throughly explain that you either want to change your username or merge with your old account.

They are pretty quick now with answering and should be able you help pretty quickly.

That's debatable. I've asked them to merge my account (going on over two weeks now I believe) and it still hasn't been done. I forgot about it and your post reminded me. Can you put in a good word for me please?

Yes, can you PM me your email and I'll see if I can escalate this one for you.

I am the same. Still not heard or see any changes in the username request, but not a huge deal for me since I have not been here as long as others, and on the free site as well.

You can simply go to your settings in your profile and change it under profile I believe.

I emailed them for support, they got back to me within 24 hours. The reply didn't seem to acknowledge what I was asking in any way, but I am back signed in on my old user name so that's a win. I actually think the name didn't have an email associated as I've had it for 20+ years and that wasn't a requirement back then.

Every account has an email associated with it, even the ones from 20+ years ago. Glad to see it's working now.

This will date me but I don't think Gmail was even invented yet when I started on the old Rivals site with this username.

Web TV was my first sign-up, when I switched from it lost my Madhat user name . Rivals made me re register and said Madhat was in use and I couldn't use it.
I think I forgot password., so couldn't change address and keep handle
