Dave Ambrose Posted February 18 Author Posted February 18 5 hours ago, Perspective Customs said: Hi Dave. I'd like to change the email address attached to this account but I believe that address may be associated with an old account. Am I able to change the email address and keep this account. Also, is it possible to change the user name without starting a new account? Thanks. Send me a PM with the particulars.
Zoom Zoom Posted February 18 Posted February 18 I followed directions, logged in w/email, changed my password, easy-peasy and everything works smoothly on both my laptop and phone.

That Plasticated Guy Posted February 19 Posted February 19 I tried to change email address that I used but unfortunately forgot my password. I'll probably just set up a new profile and use it with the new login procedure.

Still, admins here do not like users to have multiple logins. If you PM one of the admins (like Dave Ambrose) he should be able to help you taking care of this problem.
camaro69 Posted February 19 Posted February 19 Signed in with my email and my current password and it worked fine. Thanks to the background guys for all the time and work here. Rico

Mark I just had to reset my password because I forgot it. If you are logged in by your email you will just have to log in after the reset. If you use your username you will have to change to your email. Make sure that your email is up to date on this site before you log out. I did use the forgot my password when trying to log in. Because I am always logged in I never remember it.
TransAmMike Posted February 22 Posted February 22 I have to log in on my phone almost every time I look at the forum even tho I check off to stay logged in. Is it my phone or something to do with the forum login?

If those aren't enabled, then you have to keep logging in. You can also get this behavior if you're running a high privacy browser (or browser settings).

MarkJ Posted February 23 Posted February 23 I haven't done anything yet so maybe I'm good to go. My email address has never changed. I never log out.

Mine is like that too (and has been for years). I wouldn't worry about it. They probably want things like your X, Fecesbook account, and other similar type of info for a complete profile. Unnecessary.
