Changing Name

[Reece Chandler]

Two quick questions:
1. When I first registered, I obviously used my real name and not a cool "handle". The problem is - everyone can see my name. Any way to edit this?

2. How does one get the "Newbie" status changed (although I am a Newbie). Is it just time?

If you hadn't told us, we'd have thought you were a fan of some author or actor

You'll have to contact the administrator. I don't know how exactly, but there must be a "contact admin" button somewhere on the main page. My suggestion, do that now before you amasse a few hundred posts. There may not be a way to cross them with an original name if you know what I mean.

Newbie status changes as you hit a certain number of posts. 100 I think for newb.

And welcome to CGN.

Reece, to get your name changed, I believe you go to the CGN Store, and pay for an administrative task... cost is $25

Second, the Newbie status will go away after a number of posts, IIRC, after 100 you become a "regular"... however, posts in the Off-topics and some other areas don't count, (I see you're still at "0": better get busy!, LOL)
