My name got changed to "ShadowMaster"?
It’s because your name has [[censored word]] in it, which can be considered inappropriate.

Its funny, because its not. It means something in another language… Its like your name really is “Monkey” in another language, but in english it would have something offensive in it.. Its stupid, its not offensive at all.. they should atleast give me the oppurtunity to choose a new name myself, i dont want this bullkitten name

You can’t be unaware that the word you included in your name is extremely offensive in English. The name change is not optional, and those who choose an offensive display name are not given a rename privilege at this time, nor is the team going to spend time “discussing” the matter with someone who invariably will argue about the acceptability of an unacceptable name. As you have done here.
I personally think the rename is pretty cool, and I’m sorry if you don’t like it, but that’s what will be displayed now.
