I changed my username a few days ago and now the url to my page does not work.
It shows this:

Show hidden content

Even if the past url to my page works (https://pokeheroes.com/userprofile?name=silvally) and I just need to wait 3 months it's hard for others to access my userpage who don't know my past name.
I hope and appreciate it if I get the chance to change my username again :)

it works for me? I copy and pasted the link? So I don't know how to help sorry! Maybe the system just needed to catch up? Try so again <3 It can also effect the url if you add a 'space' - - On the end of it? Maybe that was your problem?

I think you should contact Riako about it personally, as he's the only one that can overrule the cooldown period.

@-Gladiolus-, he's saying that the copied link works - it's his current username that doesn't since %20 is read as a space by the url.

@Catlady, I took it to Riako first ^^ He asked me to get the user to report it since it requires a general fix so that this doesn't happen again.

Fixed. It is no longer possible to use "%" in your Username. This only led to annoying bugs in the future, so I'd say it's best to remove that possibility completely. It was very very rarely used in a Username anyway.

Edgy%20Mouse: Your username change cooldown period has been reset. You can now change your username again. Please change it as soon as possible! :)
