Send a PM to the mzilikazi. He is the board admin.

I don't know if you can actually change your user name, but you can create a new user using the name you want.

May I? I suggest you glandmatten. It sounds powerful. I think that it is Scandinavian, Icelandic perhaps.

Only for trolls who got booted off the forum and are trying to get back in and cause more trouble - I don't think any mod on the planet would mind you creating and alt and ditching the old one for a legit reason.
