 It's not just a username change on a whim..
One of out well loved teenage posters died, and his Mum now wants to take over his username.  But we have suggested we changed the username to *****s Mum, so that other members won't be freaked to see he has come back to life so to speak.

Just noticed mention of this problem on another topic, where you 'fixed it' Jim.
Can you do the same for us please. 

ps.  Did you know that there was a very popular UK TV series hosted by Jimmy Saville, (famous DJ and charity promotor) who used to arrange for people to do something that they had always wanted to and would never have been able to without major help. 
The programme was called " Jim'll Fix It". 
Thought you might like to know that, as it's rather appropriate here!
:)

Yes this was a 1.15 bug that was fixed. You must have been one of the early upgraders. I'll hop in and fix it here in a couple-

The User Name isn't mentioned in the Edit Profile section as far as I can see so is changing the name allowed on our forums normally?

Yes I remember that! It was a very popular catchphrase as well.

Well I'm the Admin but I can't find it. Perhaps I am looking in the wrong place. I usually am. :)
