vBulletin uses your display name from the old 2+2 on UBB.
The name you logged in with previously will no longer be your valid account if it was not the same as your display name.

Sorry, this option isn't included in vBulletin in order to help protect against denial of service attacks. However, you may still change the number of posts per page up to 100 through the 'edit options' section of My 2+2.
Why aren't threads with unread posts bolded?
By default only the thread title font will be in bold. However, you may choose to enable status colors through 'edit options' in My 2+2 if you want the boxes behind titles shaded. It's the setting at the bottom of the page.
