Is it possible to change our usernames?? I was part of another wetpaint website about 6 years ago and used that ID to create my new website, but I want to change my username to something more applicable to me now, and I don't want to lose my status as creator of the website. 2  out of 2 found this valuable. Do you?

No, you can't change your username. The only alternative would be to create a new account.
About your new site, you can create a new account, join there, and then use your current and old account to promote your new account to administrator, and then even maybe cancel your old account. Being administrator is pretty much the same as being the creator, with the exception that administrators can ban each other, while nobody can ban the creator.

A new account would only make you a registered member. Don't forget to reinstate yourself as an administrator. I doubt the new account will come up as you being the creator. I don't feel the creator and administrator are the same as the creator of the wiki should have the final say over everything. Do you find this valuable?
