Q: Change Forum Username

I dont know how I ended up with a username that advertises both my name and city of residence (I would never choose such a name if I knew it would be posted publicly), but for privacy reasons I'd like to set my forum username to something that isn't so personal. Searching the forums has led me to believe that there is no way for users to do this, but that mods might be able to assist me. How can I contact a moderator to request a change of username?

Can you please help me too? I have the same problem. I went to start an account...they asked me what username I want, I chose "Morgan" and before I knew it, they chose “*****". I want to please change it or just come my account all together.
