How to change Nickname?

[yoyo5280]

Hi all!

I was wondering if it is possible for me to change my nickname. Not my actual username (though that would be okay too) but the name that shows up next to my posts...

If this is at all possible please let me know.

PM an administrator, e.g. Doctor Q.

You mean the part that says "macrumors regular"? You can't change that, they're automatic by post count. See here. If you want a username change PM an admin (Wild Cowboy or Doctor Q are typically the most active and best for these sorts of requests)

You can really change your username by PM'ing a moderator? Cool..

They are not going to change it just because you want to change it. But if you have a good reason, then they are usually accommodating.
