If you’ve recently received the “Account Name Warning” message in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, stating that the reason is “Username Offensive”, you should know that there are many with the same issue. Why are you getting this message, what can be done about it, and what are the consequences?

MW2 Account Name Warning Username Offensive

The “Account Name Warning” in Modern Warfare 2 has been plaguing MW2 and Warzone 2 players in recent weeks. Namely, a large name of players started getting the message that their account had an “Offensive Username”, despite seemingly being nowhere near inappropriate. “Anyone else had something like this?” asks u/Luna_RabbitS. “I was just playing a match, leveling the Strela, after I came out of the game I had this message asking me to change my name.” And she’s far from being the only one.

Unfortunately, the main reason behind this is the simple fact that COD games have an automated report system. This is due to the sheer number of players and reports. It would be impossible for human workers to manually check every report. Instead, if people report a player enough times for a specific issue, the system will flag them for that issue. As a result, you’re receiving the “MW2 Account Name Warning Username Offensive” message due to mass reporting by a few people who got angry.

Consequently, angry players abuse the report system to flag people falsely. If you think you’ve been wrongfully reported, you can file a ticket with Activision support. Unfortunately, they are usually relatively slow to process all complaints. Hence, you will probably need to wait a while until they resolve your ticket. Luckily, the worst thing that can happen here is for your name to be forcibly changed. With that said, that’s all you need to know about this issue.
