I want to delete my lazy social account to start one in a different name. However I mod a community so can't lose access to the ban function. I put in a request for a second account on the instance and not had a reply. Any ideas?

Blaaazzeee! Where you been buddy?

Hey! I've been traveling a bit for the last few weeks, now I'm back. How are you?

I hope you'll be able to get the account you want on lazysoci.al, it's usually better to give visibility to smaller instances 😄

Glad you're back we've missed you its genuinely not been the same without you! And thanks I'm on my new account now 😃

Amazing! 😄

Hmm. There aren't any pending new user requests. Can you PM me the new name?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

You superstar! I'll pm you from my lazy social account that I want to change 😊

From the info in their sidebars, it looks like the best approach is to make a post at [email protected], or tag [email protected]

You're a superstar thanks

Can you not create that new account, and then just mod that account for the community using your existing mod account?

I submitted a request to join under a different email and explained why, they've not responded to my request so I'm guessing it's a no. My non lazysoci.al account doesn't let me ban on my instance

I see, that is troublesome. To my knowledge there isn't much you can do except wait until they reply to you - unless someone else happens to have a different way of contacting them.

Great thanks appreciate it

Sorry, I couldn't find any contact info on https://lazysoci.al/ and I don't think I have them in any matrix room.

Thanks for looking! Any ideas what I can do?
