I do not know why my name would be removed. It used to be "your dog idiot" told by a Russian dude in a CS:GO video, and yet I wake up with my name removed.

I have.

I have sent a message to Steam Support about it.

I mean, hell, I would have been willing to change it.

You don't get that chance, you broke Steam's terms and have had your persona wiped, if you continue to break it you'll get a community ban and never be able to change it.

maybe a valve worker is a dog fan and dislikes idiot and dog in the same sentence,.. or hes a former dog that evolved.. theres no other valid explanation

There is though, OP could have easily had some other name that got reported but changed to what the had when support finally acted on it.

They aren't so much changing OP's name as they are removing the ability for OP to use the name feature at all for the duration of the punishment.

Speaking of which, how do I find out how long is the punishment?

EDIT: Nvm, figured it out, it is only 1 day, this isn't so bad.

It should have said in the notification you got. If not, ask support along with your other question.

If your name was removed it was beyond unacceptable. I doubt the name listed was the offending name.

Edit: oops, I was referring to TheHowDareYou person.

Lashing out, complaining about steam action is not going to make anything better, only worse.

Who would come up with "your dog idiot" just to lie tho.

Also I am not lashing out, I was just curious to see what's up with it.

but why should support change his new name? that would make them look rly stupid

If it's in the persona history then you broke the rules of Steam. I report profiles all the time for persona history containing very bad content.

thats not only silly but shady, if I rename myself to "Suckmyballs" for 2min just to troll my friend it should be noones buisness

Then remember to clear your alias history because it's publicly available on your page even if your profile is 100% private. (And you shouldn't be using a name like that anyways)

:nkCool:

Just realized my account is 15 years old. Thats like 11-12 years ago when I started. And they were harmless names likely since I was always careful. I have mayne not even chanegd names a whole 10 years. Why is it suddenly an issue NOW? How do you know how many names existed 10 years ago when I do not remember them myself? I barely remember 5-6 changes very long ago. When I was confused at what name I should stick to. I have not changed names in close to 8-10 YEARS now.

Since you can see even what I can no longer see can you list the names then?
