    If you were using Steam sign-in before the site was upgraded, and now you see your name as szSteam_1234567890, then post here with a new username that you want. You can link your Steam account again after we change the username for you.

    Username "Adward" was taken, so I made it Adward1 for now. I added you on Steam, so please contact me for your changed password. We can change your username again if you'd like.

    I was using both forum and Steam logins... there is a way to merge both in a single one?

    I did too, just went in to the settings and then to "Steam Account Link" on the left. :)

    By the way Luke, I really love this kind of steam login, giving me the flexibility of having my unique name that doesn't change when I change steams name and plus the avatar. :cheer2:

    I need links to both:
    -Adward http://mgftw.com/member.php/11213-Adward
    -Adward 1 http://mgftw.com/member.php/11485-Adward1

    The former is the one w/ the correct registered email address.

    The latter is the luke_web one.

    This one requires a merging.

    Give me a minute, thanks,

    Login as usual. Then, use the signin through steam.

    Confirm "yes" to link.

    If you have a screen name now like szSteam_1234567890, you can get your STEAM_ID or even, as admins or other forum users, find out who the user is w/ the wierd name.

    Until it's changed, the Steam ID Finder is a great tool. It's what I use to, like I said, identify who's who until we get their name changed properly.

    Here's an example. I pasted the szSteam_1234567890 name into the Steam ID Finder and removed all but the #'s.

    1.) We will look up your luke_web screen name.
    2.) We will need a valid account email address to send password resets to.
    3.) In many cases, there is already a preexisting account at said email address.
    4.) If this is a case, we need to MERGE both accounts.
    5.) You will keep posts from both accounts. The Source Account (old/"from" account,) will be deleted and blended into the Destination (new/"to" account.)

    This only takes seconds. It's easy and we can get it out of the way.
