Question….
So there’s someone still stalking my blog. I put it on lock again… but I have enough credits to change my name. If I change my xanga name and someone tries going to my old blog, will they get re-directed my new name???? Because if so, I’m not wasting my credits on changing my name.
I haven’t had time to blog much because I’ve been busy putting music on my computer…..

Not sure but I hope so! Blog stalkers are the worse.
Yeah, once you go to your computer, change your name, they’ll still stalk you as long as your picture shows. Friends Lock is pretty much the best thing you ca ndo at this point.
Not as far as I know ,it just says the page is no longer available. Sorry that you have to deal with that.
I’m not sure, that’s why I ended up just having to play it safe and go on lock down (friend’s lock).
I think your old username would link to the new username.
I agree with Rob_of_the_Sky (: (:
The old user name does not link to the new one in SOME cases. But in others it does.
Example, if you change your name to crazy4love (just random example) and I type in crazy2love.xanga.com it will NOT redirect to your new one (crazy4love.xanga.com).
If, however, I have a subscription to you or have you as a friend with your old name (crazy2love) then you will continue to show up on my subs list and/or friends list with your new name (crazy4love). SO in this case, I could just click on your new name (crazy4love) and get to your site that way.
Alternatively, if I have a message in my inbox from you when you had the old name (crazy2love) then it will also be updated to your new name (crazy4love) and I can get to your site that way as well.
So yeah. Oh, and yeah, if you change your name and keep the same pic, kinda a giveaway.
Also think about this, if someone has you on their subs and their subs are shown in their blog/profile (or even a comment on a blog), someone could click on your new name and get to your site that way too.
Clear as mud? lol
