Can't be done. Everything comes back to the Profile page, but when I click Edit info all I get is the We're Sorry page. All I wanna do is change my comments display nickname (when I comment or reply to news articles).
Why does this have to be so hard? Yhoo keeps pounding me with ads trying to get me to update this and add that, all for a better way of doing things.. it ain't happenin'.

It doesn't work. When I do what is suggested above, I end up on the page that says, Unathorized. And that's it
Any ideas?
