I guess by now you would have already managed to change your username. But don't do that often because there may be some complications later on like what dupremo has informed.

maybe you could just create a new account and put a fake name.

yeah they didn't even put a note that they show your name in public. @ LARA do you think it will work out? will mypage5 allow another account from the same IP adress? I don't think so, I am still thinking what can I do about it I just don't like the idea of showing my name in the site.

MyPage5 will display your real name to YOU when you are logged in but, unless you used your real name as your username, it will not show it to anyone else.

hi owlwings I believe they automatically assign our first name as our username because when I register they didn't ask me to provide a username. I tried to edit my profile and changed my name but they still show my old name "real name" even when I already saved the update, but it's okay now I just logged out and delete all my browsing data and log in to my account again and it works.

You can change username and I saw responders had given the instructions now. But...please, before you you changed your username...I strongly advise you to contact mp5 admin and give your reason for changing the username before doing so. I was given fine and deducted $5 from my earnings due to changing my username which is not a violation since there is no guidelines/rules stating that changing username is a violation. I hope you will note on this...

It's because that is not your referral link, it's only the link to your profile. I've already shown you how to get your referral link on MP5 comment board.

hi jaiho thanks for these helpful advice. I have already changed my username though, I hope they won't fine for doing that, I have another question a fellow mylotter wants to join mypage5 and I gave him my referral link listed in my profile in mypage5 but when he register through that link it doesn't reflect in my referral list. I don't understand what's the problem
