i just switched it for you... i dropped the "@domainname.com"

we dont recommend members users their email address as their screen names since then they can get bombarded by spam very easily.... i was about to email you mentioning you should consider a change but then i saw this post... hehe

only the admin can change usernames here on the site... we do this to keep the confusion down on who is using what name on any given day etc...

I'd like my real name to be Bill Gates, but I guess Abel can't manage that piece of magic.

Oh well !! Tom (not tommy ) will have to do.....
