AI Thread Summary
To change your username on the forum, you must send a private message to a moderator who will evaluate your request. Typically, forums have specific rules regarding username changes, often allowing it only once. A history of good behavior, free from trolling or other negative actions, is usually required for approval. The process is straightforward, but adherence to the forum's guidelines is essential.
