Does anyone know how I get my name back? :(

[strongmints]

I changed my name to post anonymously on a thread and now I can't get my 'real' mn name back - when I try it says its already in use...I emailed tech but have had no reply

anyone else had this problem...I want my name back...

who are you strongmints?

[strongmints]

I am Apronstrings

[strongmints]

When I post i feel like i am hiding something - cos i guess by now lots of regulars know stuff about me - i don't want to start every post saying who i really am

i've looked at past threads and can't really find anything to help you, someone must have some advice.

I have no idea over name changes having never done one but can't you just log out as your new name and then type your new one into the nickname box at the bottom for posting then use your password associated with that name.

Just like you would have to do if you logged onto mumsnet on a friend's computer or one in the library.

I cant change to any other name atm. Not one ive already used or a new one. Just as I decided Good Tamba was going to make a return will have to stick to being norty now

Doh!

maybe the tech will be able to help you change back to apronstrings when they're back (do they have the weekend off) hehe
