Changing Screen Name

[leafyscreen]

Is there a way to change your screen name and retain your history?

I've looked around at my profile and don't see anything there.

Yes there is.

Click on your avatar in the corner
Choose the right most tab in the menu, the one that looks like three vertical lines with little circles on them
Click Preferences
Choose the Account tab
Scroll down, there's a button for changing your username.

Disclaimer, I don't know if you have to be a premium member in order to be able to do it, though.

Bear in mind that the change applies globally, including to past forum posts.

And that for a good long time (dunno how long, it might be permanent) there will be a note on your profile page that you used to be called leafyscreen. Searches for leafyscreen will still get you as well.

That sounds like what I want. I'm not trying to hide. I want it to be known my former name was leafyscreen.
