Bae Suzy Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 (edited) well.. pretty obvious isn't it? its a racist term and you think nothings wrong with that? Edited January 25, 2014 by Bae Suzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

punkz Posted January 25, 2014 Author Share Posted January 25, 2014 (edited) well.. pretty obvious isn't it? its a racist term and you think nothings wrong with that? clearly there was nothing wrong with it for the past 8 months since thats how long ive been using here on. all of a sudden its bad? its just a joke.. took it from the internet shock site of the same name. if theyre going to change it i could at least get an option of something new or be messaged and told it wasnt appropriate? or could have got that message when i signed up to avoid the whole issue. Mikasa: it wasnt anything like that Edited January 25, 2014 by namechangeflip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikasa Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Can you check your email that you have linked to your account, and see if you got an email? It should have sent you an email once it was changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raflesia Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Can you check your email that you have linked to your account, and see if you got an email? It should have sent you an email once it was changed. It doesn't have to send you an email when your name is changed. It depends if the admin choose for it. OT: That you had this name for months doesn't mean that it's allowed. It was reported today and that's why we took action. We can't keep track on all the usernames with such a big user base. As said before, your name was offensive and that's why it got changed. Please send a PM to any staff member with the username you'd like to have now so that we can change it again for you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
