Go back and re-read your pm exchange with me. I told you that mods don't have the power to reset your password or change your email address. Unless there's some secret button I'm not seeing. I don't appreciate the accusation.

Oh my goodness, Glatt! No, no, no! I never meant to implicate you and I offer my deepest apologies that my comments were so vague that a mod who did his best to help me out would feel that I was attacking him. I shouldn't have worded it that "no MOD" would help me, but I didn't want to go into anything more specific.

But, OK - let's be clear on this. Your last suggestion to me was:

Maybe I misunderstood you, but I was left with the impression that while YOU couldn't reset my password, maybe UT could, but he wasn't "interested in helping [me] with this."

Whatever.

But then I tried to do what you suggested and I attempted to set up a new account with the user name "IamSam." For some strange reason that account was never activated. And lots of other people around here have been able to transition pretty seamlessly into a new user name. So, why would it be so impossible for me to do the same?

I am left feeling bewildered and a tad paranoid.

Just now I tried logging in one more time as "IamSam" and I can log on with that user name, but I am still not allowed to make posts as IamSam. WTF?
