Merge 2 Accounts?


Hey folks,
I just realized that I have two accounts on here at LinuxQuestions.org. One of my accounts is this one, and the other one is simply under the username "Rudy." I've used that account more, so I'm going to sign out of this one and get back into that account. But is there a way to merge this account into that account?

I suppose this is something that a site admin would have to do.

I could confirm the email addresses associated with both accounts...

Or maybe it would be easiest to simply associate the 5 posts that I've made (well, 6 now, with this reply) to my other username, "Rudy" and then delete this account entirely. I'll post to this thread under my "Rudy" account to prove that I own that account.

True. I just got confused because I use both usernames on the internet, and as I logged into Rudy507 under a new browser install, I forgot that I should have actually logged into Rudy. When I logged into Rudy507, I saw that my email address was associated to an old email address, so I tried to change it to my new one, and then realized my new account had my "correct" email address associated with it.

Not a big deal.
