Description Дилян Палаузов 2018-10-06 18:56:14 UTC
I created at https://identity.kde.org/ an account for me Дилян Палаузов.  Then I got an email to confirm.  It opens a webpage where I have to select a user name.  No user names are offered for choice.  If I do not select any user name I cannot continue the process.

Hi Дилян, while I do not know if this is still an issue, I assigned this ticket to sysadmins for inspection.
Comment 2 Ben Cooksley 2018-10-27 18:09:30 UTC
Sorry, this is still an issue yes.
Could you provide a latinised version of your name please?
Comment 3 Дилян Палаузов 2018-10-27 19:20:35 UTC
dilian.palauzov but this is not the point.
Comment 4 Ben Cooksley 2018-10-27 20:10:15 UTC
You should receive an amended account activation email shortly.
While it's unfortunate, the current age of the system makes it difficult to address this issue.

We currently have work underway on a replacement which shouldn't have this issue.
