Hi, I tried running commands in rails c such as User.find(1).update(ip_address: nil, topics_viewed: nil) to update the things in this list below - however, I kept getting errors: <a class="lightbox" href="https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/7/3/e/73e56e75aa1500ed9b8cfce92c0c88dc42498f94.png" data-download-href="/uploads/short-url/gxgsKNn2nQGl7GnH5PW2XOrsHU8.png?dl=1" title="The image shows user account details with various fields such as username, email, activity status, trust level, and associated metrics, with some sensitive information redacted in red for privacy.

Just remove their admin privs and do it? But it looks like you can do it with a rake task: Merging user accounts [이미지] Merging user accounts rake users:merge['source_username','target_username']
