    Has any one successfully changed their screen name or opened a new account on stars? I'm not interested in multiaccounting just wondering if it's possible or if this is a myth in line with the lochness monster and the female orgasm..

    Oh, I know it's not going to happen... for me atleast. I'm just catching this drift that others have been able to. No one is able to tell me why or how they were able to. The other common response is "I just opened an account under my mom's name" or some other relative. It just seems weak and a pointless stand by the largest online poker site.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but couldn't you change your screen name on party back in the day?

    In special cases, they've been known to do it for people, but these instances are very limited from what I know... I'd say that probably fewer than 1 in 100 people who asks to do this get the request granted.

    This just amazes me... so if I'm a cheater or a good liar I have a shot. Can't I just pay somebody off like in the old days? Anyone have any contacts for me? lol

    i changed mine because it had my last name in it.. I said I didn't feel comfortable playing with my info displayed. In reality I just wanted a new name.

    Just make up something about someone is stalking you and berating you at the tables and threatening to find you IRL and you fear for the safety of yourself and your family...
