  • 9 months ago, Mojang cleared out nearly 100 rare Minecraft usernames. Over the last month, they've come back for even more. Let's talk about that.

    the nice thing is if they can change the uname field without notifing the account owner that means they can set the uname to whatever they want which means if they change their minds about some of the more popular invalid names they can revert it.

      One of my first fears when Microsoft pushed account migration is the risk of them going after "questionable" usernames as migrated accounts will fall under the enforcement of the Xbox User Conduct rules. But I didn't expect them to use the same indiscriminate censorship regiment as in the chat system. There's going to be a lot of wrongfully scrubbed names in the pool in the name of "family-friendliness" simply because they have a specific combination of letters in their name.
      Watching this ecosystem sanitized to hell is an absolute travesty.

    Very funny since mojang themselves have stated years ago that they don't censor usernames, and even cite the scunthorpe problem. The article that mentions it is still up, and as with every other help article for some reason claims to always have been last updated an hour ago or so.
    "*Is there username moderation? Can I report someone?
    Mojang Studios has always had a moderately relaxed stance on usernames. Someone who chooses an inappropriate username is often banned by the servers that they join. Even though username changes are now a feature, people have been able to register questionably appropriate usernames since 2009, and the community has self-regulated.
    Do not report other player’ usernames to Mojang Studios; if you encounter an inappropriate name while playing on a server, please report it to the server owner. *"

      You think Mojang verified each account for suspicious activity? Quite a bit of them look completely dead or untouched. Jouna08 and EKiNTK got their first NameMC views ever about a month ago. That means they were relatively inactive in servers, enough that nobody searched them on NameMC prior to now.

    As saddening as it is to see unique accounts destroyed, account buying, selling, & trading is still an issue and thus scamming, hacking, etc... I would suspect many of these non-dupe accounts have been transferred between different owners. If Microsoft can change account names / block accounts to combat this then so be it.

    Why are you so sure these are carefully reviewed by humans? It's way easier to just make a list go off automatically because that's what the databases are usually built for, flexible ways to access and edit the data. I bet most likely it's just a human who was given a list and he just checks if all good not looking into it too much, and that's the cause of wrongly taken down usernames, and they're purging them probably because it either causes a bug, someone seen it and thought it was not supposed to be a thing and just decided to start removing them until he realized something is wrong or less likely Mojangs actually intentions to remove the usernames that there are people who care about.
