Username taken issue

Dec

2011

When I first created my forum I wanted to create an account name 'Yous'. So I registered it but never got the activation E-mail. I then just decided to change the name of my Admin account to 'Yous' but I now cant because it says they username is taken. Everywhere I check I can not find were to delete this previous 'Yous' account because it does not exist yet. What should I do?

Hi, go to Administration Panel => General => Forum => Security => Security Administration => Unauthorize subscriptions made with the most commonly used spam usernames. : No Wink

Not sure what you mean by test account. What i need is to make the username 'Yous' available but it does not exist in the databases because the e-mail was not sent out. But yet it still says the name is taken,
