Trying to delete the forum "Usability of Scipad" from this page:

https://sourceforge.net/p/scipad/admin/discussion/forums

I get an error: "Shortname cannot contain space . or /"

What is this error?
How can I delete my forum?

Note that I received the same error message when deleting another forum "Future of Scipad", but apparently this one could be deleted in spite of the error message.

I suspect that this forum was created a while ago when the restrictions were different for forum shortnames. Can we get this deleted as per the user's request?

Thanks!

Workaround:
- Rename the forum shortname to "future"
- Delete the forum
That worked for me for the mentioned forum.
