Hello everyone!

So, I bought a second copy of Java (via a Microsoft account so before you say anything, no this is not a migration issue). I’m trying to set my in-game name to “Splixson”, which is the name of a species of aliens from a show. The whole reason I bought the account was so I could have that username, which everywhere says is available.

However, when I try to set it in the launcher, it says it’s taken. And when I try to set it on the website, it says it’s offensive, even though word safety checking websites all say the word is safe and not offensive. Anyone able to help with this at all?

I tried contacting the support team, but they said they can’t help with Java issues.

    I am waiting for them to notice my name. I have little doubt I will be forced to change it once they do. :( Kind of gate that, it is so hard to find a name that doesn’t have a string of numbers after it.
