The old site had username and display name. You basically could not change your username but could change your display name. The new software has only one “name” which defaulted to the olde username. Good news, you can change your “name” though.

Ah, if I’m understanding correctly, the name shown in quoted material is the old display name, which now mismatches with the current user name in use. (Or it may mismatch, for those with a different username and display name on the old site.)

I think part of that is the mismatch of username and display name. You’ll recognize some of that list by their old name I’d bet. I spot checked the list and it seems accurate. I guess that’s a side effect of being online for 27 years, some of our most prolific contributors haven’t been here for...

Upgrading the site...

Heads up I am doing a dry run on this upgrade over the next couple of days, and expect to take the site offline to do the final upgrade... well, probably around the 24th/25th. It may take a couple of days to complete the migration, upgrade, and configuration so please be patient!
