Is it possible to change author of a post?

A random one but I wondered if it was possible to change the author of posts?

A lot of my old stories are in the archives (posted by other people and I wondered if it was possible to get them changed to my account so I can edit them to fix a few erros and tidy up formatting? Didn't really want duplicate stories on here.

Were they written by you under a different Pseudonym?

If so, I'd think one solution would be for the moderator to delete those old stories and have you repost. But proving you wrote the original story would not be easy.

If someone else posted your story, it puts you in a bind. How can you prove you wrote it?

Maybe the moderator can figure something out.

Before I joined the board several people posted my stories to the archive... they are attributed to me but technically posted by someone else. Some of my older stories I wanted to fix a few typos etc.

You’re best bet is to petition a mod to remove the threads and repost them yourself
