Is there any way to change the order of which usernames appear on the PS3 menu?

The only way I can think of is to re-create all the users in the desired order, and then copy the save data across...

One thing to keep in mind is that if you delete the username on the PS3, it'll disable all of the PSN games that are on your hard drive that were downloaded with that username. Even though it's still on your hard drive, you'd have to start to download them again to reactivate them. If you've shared your games with anyone, you might end exceeding the 5 download limit.

Yeah, I would avoid re-doing the order of your accounts because of this. ^ Is there any particular reason you need to re-order the accounts?

Just to be clear, I know this firsthand after spending almost an hour on the phone arguing with Sony customer service. I had over $100 worth of stuff on my account and Sony basically told me I was SOL. They told me I had to deactivate one of the PS3s before I could redownload my stuff. My buddies and I had all paid for the games so I couldn't ask them to stop playing the games.

I want to make a new user so I can use a new PSN account (Don't like the name of my current one, I have no downloads either so nothing to lose expect a few trophies).

I created a new PSN account and tried to log in on my current user, but it said I cannot use this PSN account with my user.

So the only way around this that I can see is to create a new user + transfer save files across and use the new PSN account on that one.

This then add's me to the bottom of the list (Below my brothers user, and my brothers friends user).

Since I'm the one who paid out £300 for it, I don't really want them to be higher up the list than me...little things like that irritate me lol.

(I originally posted this topic in the PS3 forum, however it appears to have moved to a different forum and now has a different name :S...or maby its just messed up at my end)

Apparently GameSpot's been having some trouble with their forums lately. I replied to this post while it was in the PS3 forum as well and it definitely didn't have this title.
