ID prohibited can't use my name

 

"My EA ID 'NigeInAShell' is being blocked — 'Nige' is just short for Nigel, my name. It's not offensive can somebody manually approve it ??

    Hey RageRoosterUK​,

    While I can understand you look at this as just part of your name, the team needs to also consider how it may appear to everyone else that may encounter it. If you're running into something that's blocked, it's likely there due to being misused by others to the point where it was included in a filter.

     We can't manually approve names or change the filter here on the forums, but you can use this form to file an appeal with the team that can look at the filter. They wouldn't be able to make individual exceptions to something on the filter, but if it's not intended to be there they may have more options.

    I suspect this one is very much intended despite your own perfectly natural reason for wanting to use it, but definitely feel free to fill out the form so the team can review things.
