I logged in last week to discover that my name was changed by Bungie to a default "Guardian####"; no fanfare, no warning, nothing. I've had this name for years, it has absolutely no negative connotation that I can even find, so I'd love to find out why my name has been struck- and furthermore why I can't change it to anything else? Is there something sinister I'm not aware of, or is it (more likely) that Bungie's name-bot filter was overzealous?

Hello there[url=https://tuxydoh.com/images/hi.gif],[/url] A name reset to default like that means it was detected or reported, reviewed by Bungie and reset to"Guardian####", that indicates that some part of the name broke the [url=https://www.bungie.net/7/en/Legal/CodeOfConduct]Code of Conduct[/url] or the [url=https://help.bungie.net/hc/en-us/articles/7648312251284-Bungie-Name-Guide]Bungie Name Policy[/url], was filtered, and [b]cannot/should not be used again.[/b] When that happens, you get the new name cross play message in-game as notice of the name change. You can try a different name if you have a name change available. If the system is not allowing more changes, there is no way to override it.

The reason a lot of players right now can't change their names is because of a bug that is deleting name tokens. So until they fix it no one can change their names.
