While this was supposed to be a smooth transition it has been extremely difficult. My U-talk (which is gone and now just Uverse) user name and password would not work so had to re-register. In registering I not only had to change my password but also my email address which is exactly the same. I remember warnings on U-talk about changing email addresses so have no idea what this will now do.
Required to change email address.
Note: no "Submit" button showing and only "Reset Password" available
Note: couldn't even post without verifying new email address.
In addition to all the U-talk info erased in the below post/link by spd2demun the kudo counts and macros were also erased. Even user names on some of our long term members were changed.
It would have been nice to receive advanced warning all our photos/screenshots/images in our Image Gallery would also be erased. They could have been saved elsewhere before erasing. And those who had their avatar images saved in the gallery, like me, are now gone.
Seems kind of ironic AT&T always directed U-verse users to the U-talk Forum for questions/help and now U-talk as we knew it doesn't even exist. 
I'll guarntee you those photos are on a Lithium server.
They keep backup logs of EVERYTHING, so it could be rolled back or retrieved. They did not want us to know so they could have their fun. Have already seen a few in disguise, sad.
So how does one go about deleting their account here? It seems that I had to reset my password in order to log in. And when I did that the confirmation email said my login name was now "Me_3" and not just "Me" which I originally had. I don't care the reason "they" had no right changing my id. And I see no way of changinging it back.
Sure I can log in with the new password and new id -- that's how I was able to do this post (of course not until the email was verified). But apparently the only way to get a new id is to reregister. But that's out of the question too since it says someone already had the email address. Duh!
I don't want to use another email address and I don't want that assigned id. So what do I do now?
Oh, and speaking of registering, they insist you supply a wireless phone number. What if you don't have any? Fortunately you can supply a garbage number for that field. But then I'm screwed by the email field as I said above.
Guess you have not read the posts, most had the password reset and resend the email validation, they did not have to get a new user name via registration.

Some previous posters have asserted/implied that it is necessary to change your user id (re-register) to sign into the new system. I was able to only ask for a password reset, which recognized my existing user id and registered email address. However, before I could post, it required me to re-validate, which I was able to do by choosing the send-the-validation-email-again option.
Don't think it will let you enter a used user name and will just tell them to reset the password.

You were the 3d 'Me' among all 3 forums, so now you are Me_3. Send a PM to Wendigo the moderator and I'm sure she can help you.

milkman_1? Ok . . . I guess. Would rather be just plain ol' milkman. But, when all the other "milkman" /"milkmen?" register it will get confusing. ie: milkman_243.
Signing in was not to painful. Used original login name with p/w. Didn't work of course. Clicked forgot p/w. They emailed me one. Logged in with it and verified email. Then changed password back to original.
Time will tell. As long as they keep spell check. I'm not too smrat.
Edit: After posting I noticed my post number is wacked out. I'm guessing +200 from what I remember.
Edit: After checking: Board Topics + Board Replies = 506.
Spell check has never been that grate (sp.)! 
BTW, since when are we allowed to post TO anything in Announcements?
