Changing usernames?

Is it possible to change usernames but keep previous posts ect?

Send a PM to one of the moderators - it has happened before.

This new piece of knowledge is interesting and attractive. Would it affects the name on all old posts and references to them? My mind is spinning ...

This change would affect every single post you've ever wrote, but as far as I've seen not the posts by others who've cited you. There you will stay "Beppe".

So that will achieve maximum confusion with the minimum effort. A big plus for the operation. I am thinking, walking up and down mentally and thinking. You as a chess player, you think seated probably.

Strangely enough, I'm thinking best while running, that's the time of the day when I solve my small or big problems.

I had my username changed a long time ago. That's why it's two letters long instead of the three that are the standard minimum.
