shinygamer Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Hi, I had an unsuported member account here for a while username "shinygamer" and I was logged into that account when I set up a supported account and paid for a 6 month membership, I assumed my username "shinygamer" would carry on to my supported account but now the email address I used to set up my supported account is being shown as my user name, I have looked through all the settings in my profile etc, but cannot see a way to add my user name, why is my user name not being shown? Thanks, shiny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark0ne Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 This issue occurs because people forget (or don't realise) that being logged in on the Nexus sites doesn't mean you're logged in on the forums, and vice-versa. On the payment form it tells you to either login, or enter an email address and password to create a new account. Guess which option you chose! :smile: Don't worry, it happens fairly regularly and it just involves moving your membership over to your old account and deleting the new one you made. I'll take a look now to see if it was done properly. EDIT: Seems fine now. Did you use the merge functionality, Dante? Don't think I've ever used that before but it seems to have done the trick!

TheVampireDante Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Yeah I merged the two accounts and swapped the name to the desired one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, that's exactly what I did logged into Nexus mods but not the forum before making a supported account, thanks for sorting it out :blush: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YinKuza Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 This happened to me as well. I wanted to add Premium for my original account called "Yinkuza", without the quotes. Instead i ended up with a brand new account (this one) with my e-mail as username. I would love some help on this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
