So did that solve it? Can you login under your old name? NEED TO KNOW
I don't have an old name.
I did get a temperary name back in Oct of 18, but that was after a hurricane and I had a problem logging on. I made the temp so I could ask for help getting back on the forum, IIRC. Once that was solved I didn't use it again.
A hurricane blew your username away?
Not exactly :-) We lost power for 8 days, my cellphone company was down for months. My computer HD got corrupted*. After several weeks I learned that AT&T service was working, so I got AT&T service, I tethered my computer to it and was able to get on the internet, this helped immensely dealing with the insurance company.
If, I did a search of my posts back then I may find I had the same username problem, but I'm not sure.
* I had 3 items damaged by, what I suspect was a power surge during the hurricane. All were at my computer desk, the computer, the fluorescent light above my chair and my radio I have mounted to the wall. The router, modem, printers and sound system in the same outlet were fine, as were other electrical items in the house.
We lost 6 plywood panels off the roof, a garage wall tipped in against my truck, carport was gone, screened porch was gone, the she shed was crushed my a tree, our 25 by 40 greenhouse was destroyed, a million of pine trees gone. The insurance company totaled my truck, I bought it back, did zero repair and drive it daily. We had $90k of damage.
At the one year point we got back to 100% :-)
