Either email HTC at support@hitechcreations.com

or

Call them at (817) 251-1540

I would call them since they can change your name in a few minutes.

wellllllll.....  let's see.... we all pretty much had that in the beginning.

i *think* if you've yet to have made any change, you're allowed one freebie change via the system before you have to go to email and ask HTC for the change.

I can think of two reasons that someone ends up with a callsign consisting of only numbers.

a) The system asks for an ID consisting of alphanumerical characters. Now, "numerical" is easy to understand, but that "alpha", well, let's best ignore it.

b) New user types in his password...

I think I noticed someone (can't remember, was just a number ;) ) talking about using his cell phone number. Maybe there are some other reasons to choose a number. I would be 206 if WB3 had allowed numerical characters ;)

Hmm i have never heard of this VIA the system change, i am pretty sure that you need to call HTC or email them to change your ID no matter if you just started or have been here a while... Then HTC will tell you that you will lose all your perks if you go through with it.

Thats the only way i know of it.

i know you get prompted, i *think* you'll see that prompt each time until you actually change (or try to, find something taken, and then just click "ok" without actually selecting a new one an dthen you're stuck with mr# til u email HTC).

Cool, so it's a builtin IQ test, to let us seperate the intelligent newbies, from those who are only marginally capable of communication?

You can only change the case via the system.... I could, if I wanted change from Flossy to fLoSsY or FlOsSy for example.... but anything else needs a call/email to HTC.  :)
