BearlakerChange of address, email
Hi, I just posted after a long time of lurking, and noticed my profile was from years ago.
I tried to edit but no dice.
Help?
I'm at bearlaker@outlook.com

Ronin1069What are you attempting to edit? If it is your "account email", know that it cannot be a GMail, Yahoo, or any other 'free' email account. It needs to be tied to a paid service of some type.
ie: Comcast.net

BearlakerAh, well, can I continue to lurk until I decide whether I need a paid acct?

So here is how it works. Your account is fine, even if you don't use the 'old' email address anymore. (the one you registered with). The only difference is that you will not be able to receive 'alerts', if you have any programmed in.
You CAN change your display email to nearly anything you want. The site does not have PM's; so if you want members to be able to connect with you directly, you want to be sure that your display email is up to date.
For example, my registration email is Comcast.net
My display email for members to contact me is Gmail.com
Hope that helps.
