Sorry in advance if its been covered - i did search
Is it possible to change your SR username?
-
i'd like to know this as well, in case my username gets compromised - i don't want to lose my buyer stats
-
If by having your username compromised, do you mean associated with your identity? If so, wouldn't maintaining your stats allow one to link your old and new names? It seems like you'd also want to randomly degrade your stats--knock some sales off your tally or something.
-
yeah you've got a point, although if your SR name IS compromised it can only really be via vendors, which probably means you've just bought your ounce of coke from LEO, which means they are gonna come knocking anyway

when i started out i was still learning and made the mistake of using the same username for the account i send coins too and my SR name (dumb i know - i was still finding my way!)
while i have started new coin account, just to put even more space between linking it all together a change in my SR name would be most helpful (i think)
dont want to lose those buyer stats tho! just cracked 10 purchases , so am looking forward to ESCROW..finally
-
I believe it is possible. I do know that wumg00 changed his SR vendor name to w007 while keeping his account. I suggest you send a PM to SR admin and ask.
-
^^ i did just that, asked them if it's possible to change name but keep buyer stats. SR Support - they say no :(
-
This would be such a GREAT option for buyers with good stats.
Especially for my boyfriend who used my name in his fucking username. Ugh.
