Change of email

@0az Exactly when does this error occur?
Here is where you change it (when having accessed the "Edit Profile"-site as mentioned above):
-
@0az Alternatively I can delete this account - and you create a new one with the account details you prefer.
Let me know. -
@Panther I think a delete/recreate is the only way I'll be able to get it changed.
GitHub: @0az / Email: See GitHub.
-
@0az Alright, just create a new account and post here. I will take care, then.
-
But is this an actual problem with the forum, partially and inconsistently allowing too short names? Can anything be done to avoid this appening again or should this be reported somewhere?

While Github allows for 3-character-names, this NodeBB-forum usually accepts names starting from 4 characters. The inconsistency lies in the registration process when using Github-credentials for registration here, as in that case the minimum character requirement obviously is not checked, as I assume.
When registering independently from other credentials, this forum would not allow 3-character names.
-
@Panther Then, in my opinion, it would be advisable the TripleA lobby accepts no less than 4 characters, as well, since I'm under the impression that most users like to have the same name there. I don't know what's the current limit.

@Cernel Alternatively we could reduce the minimum character requirement for usernames to "3" for our forum.
This is an administrative setting. It is "4" at the moment.However I agree consistency over different platforms would be desireable.
-
I wouldn't mind either way
-
i was thinking to be more up with "the times" and appear "cooler" with the young kids i should become "the artist formerly known as SilverBullet",,, or simply "SB"!
-
@prastle What do you think?
-
@0az I suppose changing your email-address might work, once we reduce the minimum character requirement. So maybe just hold on until this will be decided.
-
Either way sounds good to me. ^_^
-
I created a bug report over at NodeBB: https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/issues/8418
I also lowered the minimum character requirement for now to 3 characters. Please change your email ASAP and report back once you're done and I'll change it back until we figure out a general rule.
-
@RoiEX Done. Thanks!
-
@SilverBullet Giggles ... I am fine if you want to adjust it to 3 in admin up to you guys. As @RoiEX said i am fine either way.
-
Changed it back to 4 for now, until we agreed on something
