Maybe a username clearup? Your Thoughts? - XboxMB

kyle1 · 08-09-2012

ok, so i find it really annoying that a lot of usernames are taken by people that never use the site and that don't use horizon that much, i think that the admins should be able to terminate an account when its not been online for like 5-8months? i dunno, i wish my username was just: 'Kyle' but for some reason when i signed i decided to put a one after it -.-, and some other guy has taken that username now and guess what.... he never comes on -.-

I dunno, just a idea

What if the guy who has the username you want uses Horizon on a daily basis? You cant just delete his username as that wouldnt be fair.

Banned users cant be deleted (words of Chris) and inactive members could come back at any time.

So a username change is unlikely.

Surely admins can see how regularly people access horizon? i just hate it when people do this, make an account and don't use it, happened on the xbox 'DZN' was taken, the guy has been offline for like 3 years -.-

Won't happen. Staff already said they will never prune.

Basically no one cares if you want a name that is taken. Tough patooty. Deleting after 5-8 months is pretty stupid as well. You realize your asking extra work to be done because you want your name exactly how you want it.....

Stop being an idiot. You didnt choose the username Kyle someone else did. TOUGH LUCK.

Get another username if that 1 is such a big deal.

I can sympathize with you as it's annoying not being able to have the username you want, but imagine you did actually get the username "kyle" then you went away from the site and came back and your account was terminated. You would be even more angry than you are now that someone else took it. Account terminations just aren't a viable thing for the site.

And guys, no need to be so mean to him.

I highly doubt it will ever happened as it is unfair on who made that account first.
