But even if we use our own name people can still use that unless Genes make it so you can't change your user name. Fiona. Can someone tell me my number though please?

As pointed out previously when this was discussed, there's nothing to stop anyone adding a bogus number to whatever name they choose either! The only way this could work is if a membership number was embedded in the poster's details by GR. Mags xx

I think it should be the name that you first Reg with and that you should be able to change it at all

YOU NEED AN ADDRESS BOOK WITH BOARD NAME AND MEMB. NO. THEN WHEN YOU POST TO SOMEONE CHECK THEIR MEMB. NO. IN YOUR ADDRESS BOOK THEN YOU KNOW, THEY ARE THE GENUINE PERSON. AM I CORRECT ? PIPS XX

Yes l see what you are saying David & Elaine - But by clicking on right click/properties as someone said you can check the number is correct - would'nt that be concrete. jude sarf wales

if you cope and paste the post with the posters name on it, into an email...send it to yourself and then you can click on the persons name...details will come up as if you are clicking on it on the gr board E x

Jude but the damage will be done because some wont have time to check the nuumber before its deleted. and will only recall the name and number and think its genuine E x
