Title: Change Forum Username
Post by: metal450 on August 28, 2025, 02:58:20 AM
@eumagga0x2a can you please change my username to chipfu? Apparently on SMF only admins can do it: https://wiki.simplemachines.org/smf/How_to_change_your_username

I also DM'ed you 5 weeks ago but never heard back, so trying a post instead

Thanks

Correct, this is why I cannot help you, very sorry for that.

@metal450

Would it not just be easier to re-register a new name. I just attempted this with the same email address without issue.

@eumagga0x2a if you don't have admin access, what is the username I need to contact?

@sark the goal is to scrub this username (account deletion/anonymization would also be fine).

Fair enough.

Mean was the original developer.

I don't believe he is active very much now, but you could give it a try. The only other option is to assign a fake email using one of the temp email services, but I'm guessing it is the username you want removed. Don't know if even mean has control over that.

Good luck.

Not that one, the other account: MeanAdmin (https://avidemux.org/smif/index.php?action=profile;u=2). I estimate the chances of a reaction as pretty low.
