How would you log in as zach if you did not know his password but knew the root password?

you are welcome for my answer it is b⇔⇒⊕

to change your username, you must:

1) make sure what the username you want to change to is allowed in this community

2) contact a administrator (for example, jaysl)

3) through pm, tell the admin what you want to change to

4) if the username is allowed, it will be changed in a matter of seconds (minutes at most)
