We are in the process of upgrading our forum, but are running into a problem and wanted to run it past everyone. In the current version of IPBoard, you are allowed to have a sign in name to get into the forum. Then you are allowed to have a different screen name. With the upgrade, they are merging the two. So your sign in name will also be your displayed name. I really don’t agree with this move that they did, but who am I to say. Anyways I wanted to run this past everyone and get their thoughts. I am leaning towards keeping the sign in names since most people have the same sign in name as display name. I know some people have different names for each, so wanted to make you aware and get everyone’s feedback. You can also PM me with any concerns, questions or changes before we do the upgrade.
I figured I´d start with a stupid question, at least everyone will read it
what happens if I signe in with milwaukee , but I´m the biggest dewalt fan in the world?
something to think about !!!
LOL, good point. Let me check and see once the update happens, I have to see if a username can be changed.
I think having the same ‘sign in’ name is a good idea.
I like things simple.
I always use Twitter to sign in, will that change anything?

I have the same sign in name so it doesn’t matter to me

I have Twitter too so I would assume that the sign in name or account name created would be our Twitter handles.

My sign in name was from when I signed up years ago on the Dewalt forum but by username that everyone sees is what I prefer. If you can change my sign in name then I’m good.
