Is it possible to merge dipierro (user number 502) with Anthony DiPierro (user number 1036)?  Preferably keeping the setting of user number 502 and the name of "Anthony DiPierro".

Would this new hybrid user be user 1538? I think you had better contact the constabulary to ask for help because it is not permitted to have two accounts.... The account should be in your full name with appropriate capitals letters, as obviously your new account is.

He's just meaning his forum account.

Merging the two can't be done, Anthony.  Huh  Which account would you like to keep?

I'll keep this one, then, user number 502.  I figured out how to change the name (had to change the name on the other account first).

Sorry about this.

It is not possible to merge two accounts, as far as I know (in addition to not being present here, this functionality is pretty rare across the board).  Your solution is the best one.

My request would be to make sure that the inactive account's signature points to your new account.
