Can I get a 'Past Username Deleted'? - Green Dope - Mar 6, 2015

Lmao, ok funny story.

So basically I reset my password on here about a year ago because I forgot, so i got an email from hackforums that sent me a new password. I always kept that email in my inbox on my email account. So everytime I had to log into hackforums, i would go into my email, copy that password and paste in hackforums.

So about 5 minutes ago, I went to change my username. When I did i asked me for my password and right below that it asked for my new username. Well without reading I assumed it was just one of those "Enter your password" again things. So I pasted my password right in, and clicked "Change Username" and I literally made my password, my username.

Lol well i changed my password now, obviously. but when you click on my profile and see my username changes you a username with a bunch of random letters and numbers. Anyway I can get that deleted since I never officially went by that name and only had it for a matter of 10 seconds.

No, they are not going to go out of their way to delete a previous username.
If you've changed your password already, then you should have nothing to worry about.
You probably would have been better off not making this thread to let everyone know that used to be your password.

Or he just used the default scrambled password that was handed out after registration. :P

There isn't a way, but it really shouldn't matter now honestly.

Well, we can't use it to anything as he changed his password already!

This is one of the few exceptions where a past username can be deleted. Contact Omniscient to get that removed.
