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?

I would also like to change my username, because it was generated automatically (I was in a rush and didn't see the field) and has my real name in it. Thanks in advance!

I need to change my user name. Can't use my real name any longer. Personal safety issues.

Yes. Thanks so much. I was unable to post for a long time because of a personal security issue. Grateful.

I would like to request assistance with changing my forum username. I didn't realize I was logged into my developer account when I was looking for assistance with another issue. Please assist, thanks.
