You can't. Ask a moderator, and maybe they'll change it for you. You used to be able to in the old forums, but when they switched to vBulletin we lost that ability. If it was added back, someone will correct me, but I don't think that was the case.

There is always a lot to be thankful for, if you take the time to look. For example, I'm sitting here thinking how nice it is that wrinkles don't hurt. ~Author Unknown

Well... because my account originally belonged to my father, and my Main toon's name is not WarMage. I don't even have that name in game anymore.|

Would prefer my forum name to match, if possible, my actual main character.

I could be wrong, but I don't think so. I don't think your father is allowed to give you his old account. I think you have to get your own. I seem to recall it being against the rules to sell your account - and because of the nature of the situation, how would anyone know whether this is not one of those occasions?

It's against the rules to sell your account, which they do care about, and technically it's against the rules to give your account to someone, but they don't care.
I inherited my main account from my ex (which we initially shared, which is also against the rules) because he stopped playing.
But they don't care.

Thank you for the replies, but I would like to know how to talk to a moderator, is it by email or by something else?
P.S. Sorry, I dont know how to use forums as well, I only used forums to check if I was invited to Beta.
No problem, WarMage -- you use the forums to send a PM (Private Message). Probably Zwillinger or Avatea would be the best people to start with. Head to your "Private Messages" area (look in the upper-right corner of your screen for a link right under your name) and go from there. They're like e-mails, basically.
Best of luck! 
P.S. There are no more Beta "invites" -- if you're a VIP (which you are), you have access to Beta.

Perhaps you will now consider this 2-boxing ? Can you be dual-boxing, if its actually 2 people with 2 comps in different rooms ? hmmm
