No. There isn't.

That date is the date that the database entry was created. There's no way to change it.

Brendan could probably do something with the timestamp, but this would possibly require taking the board off-line especially, which I doubt he'd have the time or inclination to do.

I think he converted an old account which hadn't been used. Actually, that might be a solution, if an admin is willing.

well what if I was taking a shower and slipped on a bar of soap?....oh my god!! i'd be killed. No, seriously though, Since im sort of a regular again and I have been around since the start, I think i owe it to myself to be recognized as one of the founding fathers who helped mold this MB into what it is today. Afterall, i did change my username like 3-4 times. I had to do it once because my cookies got all messed up. Im not saying you have to do it, but if its as easy as 1-2-3, then help a brother out, but if it takes hours of back breaking labor, i dont care then, I thought it would be cool to be back at 2000 where I started. If sky can do it, why cant I?

Sky didn't... he merely changed the screen name of his old Highbrow account...

Actually, could you extract a mail address for Sideswipe? I have a half a suspicion it may be a mis-entered address by myself...been wondering since Ghosty brought it up weeks ago...

I'm thinking of a two letter word.

No.

It's pretty much a similar thing to deleting accounts, people come back to use them and what happens? They find they don't have the account anymore. I'm not gonna run around changing names and suffer the backlash later on.
