@andrew (Our Supreme Lord and Overseer) I can't change my username-

Uh, it keeps saying that my username is invalid and I dunno, if you could help that would be great!

It could be a problem with the characters you are using? Many usernames across different platforms either only allow the use of letters or the use of letters and specific characters such as ".", ",", "-", and "_" which is the case here I assume. And if I'm correct, than if say, you put your username as I don't know, perhaps "#Reedisawesome" that could return an error. In addition I'm pretty sure spaces aren't allowed either.

I wanted to put it as: UnseelieKing

That should work, I think. Are you putting the @ in front? If you are, you don’t need to, but if UnseelieKing is the only thing you’re typing in the username field, it sounds like there’s a bug.

Yeah, I didn't put an @

okay, don't do that aha
it automatically does that for you when you change your username

Interesting; I'm not sure why you were seeing this error but I'll look into it. I just updated your username for you and it seems to have worked.

Edit: also i'm moving this over to Site Support instead of Announcements. :)

Huh, thanks andrew (Our Supreme Lord and Overseer)!
