Username update

Post by Lil Rafa » 01 April 18 9:56 pm

Hello faeries,
When I first joined geocaching.com and geocaching.com.au back in 2007 or something, me caching name was Ceevees. After an eight year hiatus I rejoined in 2016 and changed my caching name on both sites to LilRafa. None of the GC finds I have found since I rejoined in 2016 show up in any of my stats. In addition, when using the forum, i still need to use my old caching name of Ceevees. Can you guys perform some kind of magic so that I can see my GC finds, and is it possible to change my forum login to my current geocaching name - no problem if this one is too tricky, if it means changing my password I'd rather just leave it. I wouldn't have worried about this, except the current game lets me count GC finds.
cheers
LilRafa

That username doesn't exist at GC. Paste the link to your profile and we'll see what needs to be done.

The GC logs transferred to GCA do not seem to have a space in the name but when looking at the same cache on the GC website I found a space in the name for the equivalent log.

A friendly reviewer advised that this GC profile used to be called ceevees up to 11th March 2016.

Thanks. The forum name is now Lil Rafa (email sent).
You will need to update your cacher name https://geocaching.com.au/my/settings/ to Lil Rafa (space and case are important).

Yeah, I really should have picked that up :oops:

Cheers, I've fixed up my cacher name now.
