Hi, does anyone know how to delete my registered account in Firefox Support? Or how to change my registered user name?

I registered on the support forum but did not realise that in giving a user name, that name would be publicly viewable.

Is it possible to change your user name once registered? Or delete the registered account, then re-register using the same email address but with a different user name?

Thanks in anticipation of someone knowing how!

Your account can't be deleted, but I can change the user name. Just let me know what you want it changed to.

I would like to reformat my user name to bob fellman, which adds a space between given and surname.

You can post a request in the contributors forum if you want to change the user name.
