I was never asked to choose my username when I was registering to the forum and this random generated username is a little bit too personal I would like to change it but I couldn’t find out where or how, also I can’t delete my account to create a new one so I really hope a moderator or admin could help me about. I could use “gandhi’s flip flop” or “aGoodOldRub” if no spaces allowed. Thank you in advance.
