Is there a way to change your @handle?

Is there a way to change your @handle? For example, charactername@handle.

Now that I've seen how it's utilized ingame, I think I may want to change it. Is this possible?

    This needs to be addressed. Some of us would rather not have our in-game name permanently tied to an out-of-game account name, viewable by everyone.

    It seems somewhat of a security hole to me if they are letting anyone in game know your log in name.

    From my experience I cannot login with the handle/account name for now, only email. But when and if handle login will be available it might cause security issues.

    I made my handle back when it was just Cryptic and it's different than even my forum name.

    You can have your @handle changed by sending in a support ticket, but you need to have a good reason for it like for security if your handle is the same as your login ID. Just send in a support ticket and a short list of possible @handle you would like to have since handles need to be unique.

    Having a separate handle and account name is cool, but should be able to change it like our passwords.

    It should not be your log in name. If it is your log in name. They have been known to allow you to change it. Because it is a security issue. But as far as Im aware, this is the ONLY reason they will change it.
