A belated "welcome!" to you, [[User:Sass|Apparently my name violates the rules]]!! Thank you for contributing to [[electowiki]]! Please read [[User:RobLa/Welcome]] if you haven't already; most of what I wrote there last year still applies. I'm curious, which rule do you believe is broken by "the rules"? -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 22:33, 30 June 2021 (UTC)
 
:Hey Rob! It’s Sass. Your name filters detected the word “ass” in my name and wouldn’t let me proceed. That’s all. Also, I don’t know if the edit function is how I’m supposed to “talk” to you? It’s a bit unclear, but I hope you get this message. -- <small>''unsigned comment by [[User:Sass|Apparently my name violates the rules]] <small>[ [[Special:Contributions/Sass|contribs]] ]</small>'' 01:45, 1 July 2021</small>
 
:: Oh, hi Sass! You may want to note the problem you were having over on https://meta.miraheze.org somewhere. Accounts all use the same login information all over [[Miraheze]]. You can almost certainly get your user account renamed to something that's a little shorter and easier to deal with, but [[User:Sass|Apparently my name violates the rules]] works for me, assuming you like that name. Anyway, it's great having you here! -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 08:27, 1 July 2021 (UTC)

Hi, I'm really sorry that you've had an issue with registration (I've seen your message in #miraheze-cvt). You can request a rename via [[m:Special:GlobalRenameRequest]] where Stewards can override the default blacklist for usernames. If it's not done in 1-2 days please feel free to ping me on IRC or to email me and I'll ask a Steward to look into it.

:[[User:Reception123|Reception123]] Hrm, that's strange. It ''shouldn't'' cause an issue with the [[m:Title blacklist|title blacklist]]. If it ''is'', we should look at fixing the regex for that.

::Note for all, matching three letters anywhere in a string is generally way too sensitive and prone to false positives. This has been fixed. <span style="text-shadow:7px 5px 7px grey;font-family:High Tower Text">-- [[User:Void|<span style="color:#123524">Void</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Void|<span style="color:#353839">''Whispers''</span>]]</sup></span> 13:32, 2 July 2021 (UTC)
