as you can probably see, my username is not the best out there. It was - ahem - "created" by my brother. I can't find a way to change it. is there a way, and if yes, what is it?

On your profile there is a “edit” buttton. Click on it.

Well... The edit button doesn't allow me to change my username, although the others are absolutely fine.

If you're on the apps they don't currently support username changes. Load the site in a browser to do it.

You'll either need to wait three weeks or contact support.

It's possible that they won't change it for you and you'll still have to wait.

Why do they have to change it for you??

Members are allowed to change their username on the website but then have to wait at least 90 days before changing it again themselves
