 * Hi and thanks for the great plugin
 * i was using it for a while and it kept saying that i had the admin user still
   present, i was pretty sure thats not true but i figured to change it anyway.
 * (i was sure because i changed it before)
 * Then after that i was ogged out and can not login with my old changed username
   but could with the new name that was created
 * But now im not the network admin anymore
 * How can i fix that?

 * Hi,
 * I haven’t been able to recreate this here. Do you have a database backup to restore
   from?
 * Thanks,

 * it seems if u have changed the admin username already but not the id, your plugin
   thinks its not changed at all.
 * If u change it in that case u are no longer configured as network admin
 * Going into the db and reverting the change in the username solves it
