Wonderful...SO...all of my old account data (sync) is gone...but my primary email address is still tied to this username I DON'T want.

The username can't be changed, and if I understand correctly, my email address will not be permitted to be used for a new account, even after the account is FULLY deleted (3 week inactive 'hold' has expired).

If that's correctcorrect, then I'm stuck with either a username I don't want, or having to permanently use a different email.

Is that REALLY correct?
