Hi all,
I've had a look around for such an article, but they're mostly out of date or have not provided exactly how I can go about to change it.
I am going through all my online accounts to change my global username to Caeldom and I would please like to know how that can be done, if it's not too much trouble.
Regards,
Dan

It is a problematic procedure under the current forum implementation, one that can cause misattributed posts, login issues, etc. if the change does not propagate fully. That, combined with the potential confusion caused by a username change, makes it a process that is preferred to be avoided whenever possible. Lee may approve the request, but it's good to be aware of the issues involved.
Regards,
John

Thanks for the replies. Arturo, the link you gave me doesn't seem get me anywhere, just here http://ivijay.blogspot.com/2007/05/me-and-my-roomies.html which results in a 404 error.
It's just that username will become obsolete for me, it has too many numbers and mixed caps, which have confused people and even myself at times. So I've made a permanent decision to use Caeldom for absolutely everything.
I will try submitting a ticket to the Help Center though.
Regards,
Dan
Name changed. Happy. 
Solution: Submit a request to Support! That's all you have to do.
The best answer on the site I could find out was in the FAQ's:
