Re: Can you change your username?
You can't change your username, but, if the username you want to change to isn't taken already, you could create a new account with that username. ^^

Re: Can you change your username?
No, you can't, because your username is what everyone knows you by.

Re: Can you change your username?
Yeah, you can make another account with the same email.

False.
You can’t, because the ST didn’t make anything on the website that allows us to.

I think that HoneyHorse11 was stating the reason behind the fact that you can't, which is more informing than simply stating that you can't because the Scratch Team doesn't let you, which is pretty much a given.

Re: Can you change your username?
I did. All of my accounts have the same email. The only problem is that this means that when I request account password recovery for one account, I get an email with password recovery options for all of my accounts.
This signature is TDD's fault... yes, I had to.

Re: Can you change your username?
I don't think you can change your username. I tried on my first account (which I did nothing on) and it didn't work

All this topic really needed was a “no”.
Besides, what HoneyHorse11 said was,

What she should have said was,
HoneyHorse11 should have written:
No you can’t. The Scratch Team probably thought that you shouldn’t be able to change your username because that is what everyone knows you as, and it would be quite confusing if it changed all of a sudden.
I misunderstood HoneyHorse11 because what she had originally said didn’t make sense.
