Yes, you can change your own username, and you don't have to ask a member of management to do it for you. Icon_smile

To begin, let's go to your User Control Panel. Do you remember how to do that? On your computer or tablet, just scroll to the top of any page in the Phorum and click the User CP button as shown below.
