I cannot change my Username

[ArchibaldPK]

Hi,

I have been trying to change my username, but it is coming with the message in a yellow box:

Your account can only reply to messages received from other members, you cannot send messages to other members that have not contacted you before.

Any ideas why this is happening?

Thanks.

the PM function is a privilege not a right. Only established members are awarded it

However if you want to contact the admin team use the "contact" link at the bottom of every page

Hi, thanks for the clarification.

I have try also use the 'contact' link that you mentioned, but it comes with the same message.

See picture attached.

Bottom right hand of page, report to moderator, and put your message in the box, and send, the mods will reply as soon as they can

You only joined in February, I wonder why you want to change your name ?

The most common reason for wanting to change a username is because it’s the same as your AW username, and you want to keep the distance between the two, which is smart. If this is the case it’s actually super easy to change your AW name and keep all/any feedback. That may be easier than bothering the busy mods.

Thanks for this bit of lateral thinking, certainly very easy in Adultwork

I fall under this reason. Silly me signed up with my AW username. 
As mentioned in the a post above, I have already notified the mods.

Change your AW name, it takes seconds.
