Welp, i was PERMANENTLY banned for having the username of SaltyNiglet, which i have had for years since the ps4 was released. Im not sure why its permanent or why they couldnt force me to change it with or without some kind of 2 day or week ban but idk. Im trying very hard to appeal it because ive now wasted so much money and dont want to sell my ps4. I have no desire to rebuy my season passes and regain progress on my games. The saddest ban ive ever heard of.

I guess that's what you get for having a racist username on a service used by kids?

Well you can see why

Noun. (plural niglets) (slang, US, offensive, pejorative, ethnic slur) A child of Negro lineage


Someone must've reported it, probably just being an asshole.(or maybe an adult or someone mature did actually find it offensive, which it is) But yeah, they shouldnt have perma banned you. I hope your appeal is accepted, they 100% shouldve forced a name change. They seem to be strict on next gen

sorry but that is incorrect xbox is used by kids ps and pc have more adults then kids yes youll find kids on here and on pc but not as much as xbox as for his username ofcourse its a cause of a ban due to theres more mexicans who play ps4 then xbox just like theres more russians on pc and more kids on xbox its just due to mindset of the fan/community/userbase
