i've just fallen foul of that one, did you get a reply from Tech, OP?

Hello Laska4 and ChooseGoose,

So sorry to hear about this problem.

Could you let us know exactly what happens when you try to change your name back?

ChooseGoose · 24/03/2015 18:51

when i tried to change back, it highlights this message in red..

"Nickname must be between 4 and 30 characters, with characters: a-zA-Z0-9 — it must not be used by someone already"

just tried it again now, and still pops up

but if you carry on and ignore it, then you can change back after all Confused
