Whats the original user name?
Sorry, I could have been a little clearer on what I was doing.
And if that was the case, I would have moved on and never even started a trouble ticket back in 2018 as most of those old threads had no activity for a long time anyway. The issue is that even subscribing to or starting my own thread today still gets me zero notifications.
My plan was to start using the new account exclusively and have the old one exist to refer anyone to my seller/buyer ratings if I'm doing any business in the classifieds so I don't look like a new member with zero history.
The issue with keeping the old account instead is if I post or ask a question in a thread and forget about it a day or two later(which at my age is easy to do) I look like an *** for not responding or thanking someone for their assistance because I never got a notification of their response.
Is there a way to merge my seller ratings into the new account? That would make it easier or lock my old account so I couldn't use it but it could be viewed by others for reference?
