Xzener 729 Posted January 8, 2015 Posted January 8, 2015 Hello Why is it that when I change the user name of the Connect user (Xzener), the name reverts back??
Xzener 729 Posted January 9, 2015 Author Posted January 9, 2015 Somewhere in the process of Connect, my normally used profile Jason disappeared and seemed to be replaced by my MB login name xzener. My playstates are correct which is fine... But I don't want my normal user to be xzener. I have tried changing the user name (under "User" settings in MBS) to Jason. It works for a while, but reverts back to xzener. I don't understand why I cant change it.
Xzener 729 Posted January 9, 2015 Author Posted January 9, 2015 Here is a pic of me logging off, and back on a couple hours later... The user name changed again?!?! I will post the log later today. I'd like to figure this one out.
ebr 16185 Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 You've linked that account to your account here with Connect, right? The display probably depends on how the client is connecting - directly vs. using connect as Connect would know that user as Xzener.
Xzener 729 Posted January 9, 2015 Author Posted January 9, 2015 (edited) The previous login was in the parking lot at work... Obviously not local. The second, logged I to the external ip, is that not a way around connect?? Why is it changing my user name?? Just attempted to login locally... It's failing because of the name change. I can't be the only person with this issue. Edited January 9, 2015 by Xzener
CBers 7451 Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Can you not unlink MBConnect from your server? I don't use it, so just thinking out loud.
Xzener 729 Posted January 10, 2015 Author Posted January 10, 2015 Why have the option to change the name in MBS if it isn't going to allow it??
Xzener 729 Posted January 10, 2015 Author Posted January 10, 2015 Was going to post a log, but from what it sounds, this is not a bug? Looks as though I have to do what CBers is doing and simply not use Connect. Thats a shame. 1
CBers 7451 Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 I've never used it as I have DDNS setup and all of my friends and family that would be interested, already have their own MBS setup
Spaceboy 2573 Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 Ahh I now see the point of mbconnect, it's for those that don't have DDNS! Been wondering why the fuss, but now i see 2
Luke 42080 Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 not just that but if you want to invite someone to your server it's so much easier when all they need is a username and password.
