    Just a quick heads up, you can now change your forum username by clicking on your profile (top right) and selecting 'Change Username'

    That is it! Super easy, just thought I would give you a heads up in case you wasn't aware...

    in the dropdown? not so much.
    is there a waiting period or something (i just got gold an hour ago)?

    also, fwiw I guessed/figured out the URL:
    http://www.xpgamesaves.com/account/change-username
    But it says "You don't have the necessary permissions to change your username." when I try to change it.

    No drop down. It's literally under you avatar pic. But that might be why. Wait a bit and see what happens

    Ok so just for my sanity, the place I should be looking is the very top of the site. Black bar that has my name, inbox, and alerts?

    Or the top right of the "main" area of the page where it has my name, Messages, Ratings, and Points?

    Or somewhere else entirely that I am too stupid to realize?

    Hover over your username at the top right corner and it will say change username right below your avatar.

    well... its been over 24 hours now, still not showing up. Anyone know when it actually should show up? Is this expected behavior or a bug? This is the main reason I upgraded to gold, so I'd like to be able to do it or at least know when I should be able to.

    All issues should be fixed now. Gold Members should be able to see the change username feature.
