Is there any way to change my name or would I have to get another e-mail address and re-register?

well I just want 1 name but with the address that I registered the name I have to.. if that makes any sense haha.

I've seen other boards really similar to this one and they allow name changes..

Most message boards have an option to allow changes of the screen name–either your actual log-in name or just the one that displays on the screen (YaBB is of the latter type, you can change the display name easily. I log into GBHQ and GBI under my old GBN name “Veedramon” but on screen my posts say “Dr. Fritz V. Baugh”)

PhpBB, the program for this board, is no exception–however, the option than allowed name changes was seldom (if ever) used in the board's first few weeks, and was disabled in July when Chad returned. He would have to enable it again.

Since I get the feeling Chad does not like the name change option, you are, indeed, in Vego's words, “screwed”.

Well, it HAD the ability to change it's name but I think one of the administors, I think Lord Vego posted “PEOPLE, STOP CHANGING YOUR NAME!!” And it was turned off. Alot of people were constanly changing there names.
