· #1 Posted August 28, 2018 · Report post I signed up as marinersk. Went through the verification steps. Posted several items. Updated my VIN in the 450 list. Had a lovely side conversation. Got several notices via E-Mail from the board. Noticed the other day my posts were listed as being "Guest". Tried to log in as "marinersk" and it says no such user. Help? Did I do something wrong?

If you're curious, check the VIN database forum for WMEAJ00F25J154685; my comment is still there and it knows the name under which the comment was made. If not, no worries. I guess I can be marinersk2 :: sigh :: Question, though. I'm still listed as a Guest; I recall reading... something... somewhere... about doing... something... to get "upgraded" out of "Guest" status. What needeth I do?

I am seeing your "new" screen name ( marinersk2 ) in the above posts, but under the silhouette where a picture is usually posted, you are listed as a "new member". That will be upgraded shortly to "regular member". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
· #9 Posted September 17, 2018 · Report post I also took the '2'I think it automatically changes at 10, but I will go in and force it to change now. I also removed the '2' from the username - as the old one is gone, it wasn't prevented from being changed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
