    Number Names Can't Play Multiplayer

    People who's account names consist entirely of numbers encounter issues when trying to join a game. The waiting for player box never disapears for both players in this situation and makes it near impossible to play a game.

    Since this issue affects me and this problem might never be fixed, I was wondering if it was possible to change my account name so that I could finally play multiplayer.

    Any help would be appriciated.

      You could just make a new account.

          Hmm...

          I'm pretty sure LD, Synth, or some random mod can change your name. But if this is happening to people with names consisting of only numbers, then this may be a problem for alot of people who have done this.

          I'd have to say this should be fixed in some sort of fashion... probably a ban in usernames consisting of only numbers maybe... I dunno...

          EDIT:

          ....or what Shashakiro said.

              We cannot change usernames.

                  I've had this account for many years and I really don't want to have to make a new one.
                  It would take me forever to get my rank back to 124.

                      You can't LD? Is that new to vB?

                      Also, 28846... you could always make a new name just for MP.

                              He is talking about overall rank, not MP level.

                                      I will investigate this problem this week and see if there is something we can do about it.

                                      Cheers,
