I’ve wondered about that myself (getting my screenname changed). I’ve seen a few vanity posts/requests, and the general consensus is to ask the mods. I’m not aware of any that have been changed, though.
I suppose I *could* just start a new handle. But boy howdee, around this place, new handles - especially in an election year - get it far worse than those of us who chose unfortunate screen names many moons in the past.
You are right about that.
Being a Noob gets one a lot of scrutiny and sometimes abuse.
Your tag line provides adequate cover.
If you are serious about changing it, I’d suggest a FReepmail directly to Jim Robinson.
