    I've somehow managed to have two accounts. This one and another one. No idea how I did that, but they've both been in existence for a while. Can they be merged? Actually, I don't even know if the other account has anything worthwhile in it to be merged. Probably not. Sigh.

      We can't - only the admins can. If you decide they would be worth merging, just ask here: Bugs and Suggestions[^] and Chris will do the deed.

        I'll try logging into the other and see if it's worth it. Maybe just delete it. :)

          That's easy to do once you are logged in: 1) Hover over your username at the top right of the page. A drop down list will open. 2) Select "My Settings" from the list. 3) In the resulting page, select the "Privacy" tab. 4) There are two options: 4.1) Under "Account status" there is a checkbox "Close my account" 4.2) Under "Forget me Forever" there is a checkbox "Forget me. Forever." 5) Select the appropriate checkbox, make sure that "I have read and agree..." is ticked, and press "Save my Settings". 6) The rest is history ... as is your account.

            We can really only merge articles from one account to another, I'm afraid.

            Thanks, Sean Ewington CodeProject

              And just after step 5 you realize that you are on the account you want to keep using... :doh:

              I, for one, like Roman Numerals.
