@EA_Cade
My user name on AHQ is an old one I haven't used in years (Jayel-1) I went in to change it to February11 it told me February11 was already registered. Rosemow mentioned that maybe another poster has used February11 but in the bottom part where it says "game specific identities" it says The Sims - February 11
So I can't understand why I can't change it there.
But, the question is, when the new EA forum gets up and running and everything is transferred, will I be Jayel-1 or February11?
Looks like February11 is already in use as an EA ID by another user I'm afraid, so assuming you have both the AHQ and Forums.TheSims logins as the same email address your content would migrate under the name Jayel-1.
Just a couple of follow up questions pertaining to one’s username already being in use by someone else on AHQ:
1) If linking the account here and the one on AHQ, will our username on any posts we have originally made here that get transferred to the new forum then appear with the username we have on AHQ?
2) If we, due to the fact that we are unable to change the username on AHQ to the one we have here, choose not to link the accounts, will any posts we have made on threads that carry over to the new forums then be deleted or will the posts themselves appear but with the “user deleted” instead of a username?
3) Will the new forums be completely connected to AHQ and our login there or will we be able to create a new account just on the new forums when they’re up without linking it with our AHQ account, thereby enabling us to continue using our current username?
