Hi, when I signed up for the forums I was in a (too) whimsical mood and put in MC Melly etc... - is there any way I can change this? Thanks

You could try sending a PM to "webmaster" and request to change your Login Name. Go to the tab called "My Home and Settings" above.
I don't know any way you can change it yourself. Good luck.

Marry me....wait the wife is ...never mind....
My daughter has a best friend, Melonie...French...we always have called her Melette due to her diminutive size.....which will not strike a power chord...drop the 3rd....

Hee hee! Well, I've mailed the webmaster and we'll see. I feel embarassed to post because it makes the "poster" column really wide and scrunches all the other columns up - I feel like my forum footprint is too large!!!!! That'll teach me to be flippant with handles.

I think you have to re-register using your "new" name. I wanted to do this a few years ago also but understood I would loose all the post I was involved in for the year or years prior. And sense I get paid 10.00 for every post (every five years or so) I sure did not want to do that . . . oh, should have not said that.  But as you have just started posting recently and are sort of new, and refreshing I might add, it might not be so big a deal. Later,

10 per post? Well, huccome I'm only getting 7.50? A Melette is a member of The Melettes, a term for me doing my own backing vox. There are 3 regular members - Etta (who has to be turned down in the mix because she always sounds like a man) who takes the 3rd (or fourth) below the melody; Dusty who sings the middle voice (and is most dependable and tuneful); and Tramaine who sings the highest bits and is very loud, occasionally out of tune, annoys the neighbours and drives the rabbits mad. To hear the Melettes rehearsing : http://www.melaniemaguire.com/dps/index.php?item=Songs&song=Catch+On+FirePS. If anyone knows the rest of this gospel song, please let me know...thanks.

 Mel - I do believe you are rapidly becoming a folk hero in this neck of the woods.  It would almost be a shame to have the MC etc. etc. disappear - there's no missing your posts that's for sure. Whimsical works for me. Cheers

It's like finding out that everyone in the band has resigned and you're left all alone... and then finding out that they all formed a new band, without you.....
