I have donated and posted here since 2004

and my check for $25.00 was cashed last week but I cannot get an answer to my problem.
Last year, due to my husband's illness, we relocated. I signed up again with a new user name so I started with zero posts. I would like the number of posts transferred to my new user name. Is that possible?
I have sent 2 'general information' emails and also requested it in writing when I donated last week.

Can anyone assist me. I'd sure appreciate it.

Unless, God forbid, you've been stalked online, and need a new username. I've seen times when this has been done.

You should have kept your old username.

In election years, I think after the election, sometimes they have a name amnesty, where you can change your name and not lose your posts.

You might be able to get them to reinstate your posts then.

Good luck!

Viva as well.
I moved from my native state of Ca. to Wa state and thought it appropriate to reflect that because I had my Ca city in my name.
I will wait to see if I get a response. It is a really busy time.

Thanks again.

...as I have been a member since 2004. My old username is AgadorSparticus. While that is one of my favorite characters from a movie, I am ready for a new "name".
