Next week as you log in you will be prompted to use your e-mail address and password instead of your display name and password. This change is being made for a number of reasons.
The biggest reason has to do with the forum being part of the RV Life family of sites.
Many of us have accounts at other RV Life sites, specifically Campground Reviews or perhaps you use Trip Wizard or the RV LIFE Mobile app. You can access all your RV LIFE sites with a single email address and password rather than having to log in to each site with sperate credentials.
We hope this single sign-on will simplify things substantially.
Some other reasons:
Your username will remain unchanged and display as usual next to your posts.
If you have trouble logging in with your e-mail address instead of username there will be some prompts on the login screen to help you and a link to update your email address if needed. If you have a separate email address you use for other RV LIFE sites and would like these accounts consolidated, please hit the contact link at the bottom of the page to get some help.
Thanks in advance for your patience with these changes - we're working hard to improve security and keep the site easy to use.

Some other reasons:
- Username logins were case sensitive and often had punctuation that could be miskeyed or forgotten and has been a regular cause of login trouble.
- It's easier to remember your e-mail address then username for most folks.
- E-mail address are not visible on the forum but usernames (half of the login combo) are and so there is a little better account security.
Your username will remain unchanged and display as usual next to your posts.
