Remove First Name and Last Name from User required details. #90

Closed CoreyWarren closed 1 year ago

These details are unnecessary and can restrict user inflows due to extra data being required of them (even if they can just make it up). These things were initially added to perhaps make it harder for bots to just create accounts, and also because I wanted to use this data to help with order data. However, Emails will be handled by Stripe, and I don't want to deal with handling sensitive customer data on my website. Handling passwords is already a liability, such as if we get hacked and our hashed passwords get stolen. I'd hate that if I were a regular user. So I'm trying to minimize a lot of these vulnerabilities for security.

Fantastic. Just had to brush up on my RegEx so we could find all the little instances of first and last names, with or without an underscore between the two words.
