    I took it serious

    But can you tell me why you don't allow changing usernames as per the user's request ?

    Re: [RESOLVED] Change username

    There are several reasons, one of the significant ones being that an Admin has to take time out to manually make changes to the database. There are other reasons listed in previous threads in this forum.

    If a member is relatively new, a valid "solution" is to stop using their current user, and create a new account with the desired name.
