Almost 5 hours since reset and we haven't heard a word from Bungie about the name change issue.
Just address the issue already and say something... anything.
Not communicating on the issue will just make things worse. People are already taking matters in their own hands, starting to use their only name change token to change their names.
Others are waiting it out hoping the (in many cases unwarranted) changes will be reverted.
Some of my friends are scared to log into the game after reset, for fear of having their usernames changed.
It's a mess.
And for the people defending this debacle: Take a hint! The forums, reddit and twitter are blowing up with people complaining. Something went horribly wrong and tons of people got wrongfully hit by this. We understand that Bungie has the right to ban names at their sole discretion even if those names did not violate any COC, TOS etc. But this is obviously NOT what happened here. No Bungie employees looked at thousands of names and made a conscious decision to ban said names at their own discretion. This is the result of some automated process that was miscalibrated.

So that's why I've seen so many "Guardians" in the game today. I was starting to think that people had really ran out of creativity.

Bungie has acknowledged the issue and is investigating. https://x.com/Destiny2Team/status/1823519880374833618?t=7AJ45mfRiethDyGqKlalGg&s=19

1 ReplyEdited by I Drift 2: 8/13/2024 11:46:26 PMIf my name isn’t restored I’m done . 10 years with same name and all 3 my day one characters I’m not playing without my name it’s on all my physical game rewards triumphs tshirts etc so if it’s gone so am I this is ridiculous.

I think everyone is getting a name change token tomorrow. Enjoy your anonymity while it lasts lol.

1 ReplyWonder if they’ll just revert everyone’s name back ( if they can some how track all the affected players ) or just give everyone a free name change again .

I agree with you. The issue should be addressed by the official team.
