For a couple months I've been contemplating changing my caching name =
from Offtrail, which I originally chose from the type of hiking I enjoy =
the most. I don't hike that way except in places where the impact of =
such travel is negligible, if not zero. But, from a desire to show =
geocaching as an environmentally friendly activity, which generally it =
is, I'm thinking of changing to Peakbagger, my long-time email name.  I =
think it's available.

=20

Familiar names are important, though, and shouldn't be changed easily or =
often. A certain mountain peak in Phoenix is a good example.

=20

So, two questions for anyone who cares to give an opinion:

=20

1. Does "Offtrail" have negative connotations, or am I concerned about =
nothing?

=20

2. Have others who have changed their name experienced any complications =
at the main site or at azgeocaching regarding stats, etc.?

=20
