Make username the first field in the sign up forms

AI 生成的摘要

probus proposes to reorder the sign-up form fields to prioritize the username, as it is often the most important field for users. The proposed order is: Username, Name, Email, and Password. This suggestion stems from an issue where a user likely entered their desired username in the email field, which was not validated. The discussion is a continuation of Why showing blank email box during Facebook sign up?, where it was noted that Facebook sign-up does not automatically populate the email field.

I propose we make Username the first field in the sign up forms, because that is the most important field in the mind of the user (i.e. registering a username for themself).

The email field is currently not validated in the facebook sign up form (below). We had a user who I assume typed their preferred username into the first field and probably never even looked at the labels or other options. I think it’s a fair assumption, but it probably never comes up for others because the validation stops you from submitting the form.

Proposed order:

Username
Name
Email
Password

Current form:
