How do you change your user name or profile name here on Free Republic? I picked "Maga2017" back in 2016 but I want to update it to something that's not tied to a specific year. I can't seem to find the option in the My Profile or My Account links on FR. Thank you in advance.

Thank you! The years have gone by quickly but they have been good years.

The next six weeks look to be quite a ride for us!

Someday there ought to be a history page about FR and the unusual idioms that have existed here since time immemorial.

It would be a trip, I had lurked here for years during the Clinton years, but waited to join.

Next you’ll want a good drivers license photo.
Fuggedaboutit!

My 20th anniversary is the 29th of this month.

People like Grampa Dave and SamAdams76 really busted my b@lls when I first joined.

Now I wouldn’t know what to do without FreeRepublic!

This is series and hugh!

You need to reset your beeber to stune!

OMG...lol....love it.....the 'good ole days'

I asked the mods to change my name from Kalashnikov68 to Drew68 about two years or so after I joined. They complied almost immediately and it’s been Drew68 ever since, while still retaining my original sign-up date and posting history.

pwned

[right way right]

Only Jim Thompson can change it.
Ping the moderator and ask for Jim Thompson.

Wow! I did not know of that history. That’s interesting.

[catnipman]

i don’t particularly like my profile name i picked twelve years ago, and my tagline is grossly outdated, BUT i don’t consider changing them because i sometimes use them as elements in a search engine search outside of FR to find links and comments i’ve posted there in the past ...

All your base are belong to us...

[Grampa Dave]

Happy Anniversary and thanks for joining FR.

Vote Republican in 2012 and only be called racist one more time!

That's funny because it's the same thing every election. It's been fun, if disillusioning, to see the narratives, the tropes, the playbooks unfold over the years.

[Not A Snowbird]

I just sent Jim a private message and he (or his minions) changed it.

I have had the same thoughts...the “NY” in my screen name flags me as the enemy in many minds, and I do not blame them one bit.....I feel the same way! Wish I could change it to “WyomingAmerican”.

[SuperLuminal]

Simple...
The following steps will probably meet forum guidelines:

1. You have to strip off all your clothing;
2. Post a tear-jerking opus that contains the picture; and,
3. Bend over and spread'em for the outpouring of FR sympathy...

I feel old.

You are old and so am I.

Next year at this time, according to Rooster Cogburn, I am going to be 16 lustrums, and that is definitely late in the fourth quarter of life.

[SamAdams76]

Coming up on 12 lustrums myself!
