How to change the password?

I have looked at 'My Settings', and found only 'Change Email Address' but not 'Change Password'.

Thank you.

Furthermore, is it possible to change my user name to be 'MeshPlayer'?

('m' and 'p' are changed to capital letters.)

Your user name is not actually case sensitive. You may login as MeshPlayer or meshplayer or MESHPLAYER as you wish, and others will see that particular capitalization for that session. The next time you login, you may freely use a different capitalization pattern.

Thank you for the advice, but unfortunately it fails. :-(

You have to change the password in BBO, it will be reflected here.

BBO's username is case insensitive, but forums' isn't.

Honestly I prefer mEShpLaYEr

If you click 'forgot password' on the login screen, you can reset from there.

If he forgot his password he wouldn't have been able to login to the forum.

To change your password from the BBO application, view your profile, enter the new password into the Password and Confirm Password fields, and click Save Changes.

Thank you all above for the kind help.


I just logged on BBO and tried to change password but did not process.

My idea of changing password is to use a securer password,
so I want to change to a longer one.

However BBO allows only up to ten letters for a password,
which is not enough for me.

Is there a way to overcome that?

No, 10 is the max, but you can use numbers and symbols to make it more secure.

All right, understand.

Thank you for your assistance.
