Hi, I would like to know if it is possible to have my username changed. I have an underscore in the name and would like to remove it to ensure no issues occur.

dkl [5:31 PM]
@edwin maybe what is the username?

edwin [5:31 PM]
Currently it’s `egao_`

dkl [5:36 PM]
@edwin I see two accounts egao and egao_ why did you create a second account?
the egao_ is the one with any activity and the other is empty so I propose we delete the egao and rename the egao_

@dkl I originally used my private email address for bugzilla, created account on phabricator.
@dkl then I realized having private email on bugzilla and having a mozilla email at same time would conflict so I re-did the steps with my mozilla email account
@dkl I agree with the proposed solution, do I need a bug for this?

dkl [5:38 PM]
no i can take care of it now

edwin [5:39 PM]
thank you!

dkl [5:41 PM]
@edwin all done
