I'm "Bad-Influence" from US but when I log in, I get everything/history from "Bad Influence" from Germany.

Can this be fixed?

Ohh wow, if that's accurate, it means the site is possibly replacing " " with "-" on the back end somewhere, since you can't have a space in a lot of systems. I have an email address with an underscore, and it used to cause issues a decade ago.

Hi Griff! If i did it correctly, I attached what I'm trying to describe. The boat and location is wrong as well as the post's. I doubt you would remember me but I was all over the AT forum as well as contacted you before about your 32. I bring this up because the history/post's/threads are nothing from the AT forum to prove I'm being mixed with someone else. Can you help with this? I am happy to have my name changed if it helps...i just want to be credible.

It looks like the screenshot worked. You can see the boat is activator and location is Germany. One of the posts also shows a reply about Miami boat show saying "6 from overseas".

I see what you are posting about now.
If I click on your public profile, it shows the Bad Influence without the hyphen's info.

In our Mod area, it shows 2 totally separate screen names and member id numbers.

IBJoel will most likely need to send something to the tech guys to resolve it.

Sabrtoothsqrl is correct. When you navigate to your public profile, the URL uses "-" for spaces, hyphens, and underscores (but your private messages and account settings will be your own). We can't fix THAT part.

Given that "Bad Influence" (DE) has been registered since 2005 and active in the last year, I am hesitant to change their username. I can change your username however, and this will resolve the issue. Even just adding a number or something will do the trick.
