I think I read your mind, I just answered your questions seconds before your post 😉

Jeez...seems some posts got killed.

I'm just trying to be clear. Obviously I'm dense.

Nevermind... @Someone_here just cleared up my uncertainties.

@LEGO: So that's interesting. You're saying you can keep your community activity scores alive by just using the same email address as your account?

Community rewards are applied to your PM account once per month, usually between the 5th and the 10th of the following month.

Regarding rewards, if you do as suggested, you would only lose:

1) Community contributions counting toward community reward of the current month (made between the first of the month and today)

2) Community reward of the last month, if doing the change before community reward of the last month is applied to your PM selfserve account.

For community activity scores (number of posts, status (mayor, etc.), bravo's received, etc.), these would be lost, yes, but this wouldn't have any incidence on your monthly rewards.

@Anonymous If your Community email different from Self-Serve email, then Rewards earned (in the future) in the Community would not be applied to you account!

If Moderator_Team will change your username, then no Rewards lost in process.

Just like what everyone kinda said is, just make a new account with the email you are using for your self serve just so your rewards are calculated. I did that myself before and my rewards have never been touched.

Along the lines of what @LEGO said. Go into your Community account. Change the email address to something else. Log out. Abandon it. Never look back. Create a new Community account using your preferred email address that you have on your My Account account.

You may create a new Community account, but make sure you use the same email as for Self-Serve account, so that Rewards earned apply correctly.
