Today I logged into the game after the 8.0.0.8 update and a message appeared saying my name had been changed to "Guardian" and a random number. The reasons for this were apparently:
1) I logged in for the first time.
2) I recently changed my name.
Neither of these are true. I [u]haven't[/u] changed my name since I first played Destiny 2 in [u][b]2018[/b][/u].
My name "FreshHummel" (Hummel means bumblebee in German) has not, to my knowledge, violated Bungie's rules in the last 6 years and still does not.
So why was my name changed?

A name reset to default like that means it was 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]can no longer be used. 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 not previously changed it.[/b] If the system is not allowing more changes, there is no way to override it.
