A few hours ago I received a message from the administration:
"We have a strict username policy as all users on the site can see all names. Inappropriate usernames can result in account closure at any time. Upon review, we did not find your name acceptable to be seen by our userbase. Since it is not technically possible to change usernames on lichess, this account will have to be closed within the next 48 hours. You may use this time to, for example, download the games you played on this account or create a new one. We hope that you understand this decision. We apologize for the inconvenience caused and would appreciate if you continue playing on our site on a new account. If you do wish to create a new account, please choose an acceptable username."
Who finds my nickname offensive? I'm not even asking the administration, I want to hear from ordinary users. Please write your opinion on this event. This is an ordinary nickname, with a rhyme in a nutshell, it did not have any offensive character, many users saw humor in it, but today they want to delete it.
I have played for about 3 years, and about 30,000 games, it is unbearably painful for me now, because this game is part of me and my nickname is part of me, I have used it on many services. I do not know what to do if it is deleted.
