    Is there a way for me to change my screen name/delete questions I previously posted?
    There is information about me on this website which will no longer serve me well. I want to either delete these questions or at the very least change my screen name so that this information will no longer appears in a google.com search.

    No, questions are not deleted unless they violate site rules, and no user names can not be changed.

    I would hope you knew better than to actually use your real name, thus the reason people use fake screen names or alter ego names , not real names)

    When you joined you were asked to agree to the terms and services of this site.

    If you had read those terms and services you would have seen that once you pick a screen name, it's yours as long as you use your account. Also, all questions are permanent and become the property of AMHD.

    You can stop using this account and your questions and the username will fade away eventually. You cannot change your username, delete the account, or delete any of the questions or posts you've posted.
