Displaying full last name on Bigger Pockets

Patrick G.

Hello,
I've noticed that some people have their name Displayed as First Name Last Initial. I would prefer that. Is there a way to switch that. Or do I have to delete my account and type in G. for my last name?

Thank you,

Patrick

I had my last initial only too for a long time. Then, one of the members for some reason decided they should look up my last name, and make it his mission to start posting my last name in posts (apparently he must have thought I didn't know it) , therefore; I started using it on my profile.

There's just no way to have privacy anymore. The State of California allows anyone that wants to to go online and steal our contractors and brokers license numbers, bonding company information, etc. It's crazy!
