Is there an easy way for a moderator to cancel a duplicate account (other than banning the user)?
In the thread I tried to add a permenat alais to the bashrc user Joshua Smith made his 1st and only post.

Later in that thread, user jtsmith90 continued the conversation and said he had forgotten that he already had an account.

Is there a way for us to shut down the Joshua Smith account other than by banning that user ID?

If i remember correctly the admins can merge user accounts. You might want to ask Neo or Scott to do it.
