So recently been stumped after trying to figure it out, was wondering how to add a signature to my forum profile like I've seen some others have.

Also was wonder if & or how I can change my forum name I use to the same as my in game name I use & play under? 
&
If you get an Additional Character Slot does that character start fresh from scratch new name rank & all or does it retain the same name rank & all?

    I'm not quite sure how to add signature either and the forumname is the ID you use. It's possible to use ingame name?

    Regarding Character Slot, it should give you a 2nd slot as far as i know, which means you can create a 2nd char, so new start. You'll still have the primary char in the account.

    ^ edit: if you check the right side of your screen you can go to your profile and then ''edit profile'' to add signature.

    Thanks for the help figured it out, would've hoped GM could have answered my other questions though.

    As far as I'm concerned, we can't change our display name on the forum.
    It automatically uses our BlackShot ID, just as @xen5267 wrote above.

    Have fun in-game. :-)

    There really shouldn't be any problem with changing your display name in the same manner that you can change your email or password too. So don't see why you couldn't change it to reflect your IGN.

    You are totally right, @Oldtoby88 . It's really not a big deal at all.
    Actually, the previous forum provided an option to change display names.
    Since they switched to this current system we can't do that anymore due to lack of permissions or because the system wasn't built to support such option.

    It can be noticed that display names of the GameMasters are unlike their BlackShot ID, basically to demonstrate their role. However, I believe they were changed manually.

    Dear Oldtoby88,

    First of all, my sincere apologies for the late response to your questions, that being said, here are the answers you were looking for:

    - To change your forum signature, please click on '' My profile '' located at the right side of your screen, then click on '' Edit profile '', then on the right side, click on '' Signature settings ''.

    - Regarding your forum name, unfortunately, so far you're not able to change your forum name as it's connected to your login on the main website.

    - Regarding the '' Additional Character Slot '', yes, you will get a fresh new character and you will have to start from the bottom with that character, but don't worry, your main character will still exist and you can switch between them from the character screen ( the first screen you see when you launch the game ).

    Kind regards,
    GM-Mentalist
