Website - Username change and "MESSAGES:"

    Hey all, thanks for checking out my post and any advice will be appreciated.
    I changed my Minecraft username from "INFERNOGON049" to "Omega_Inferno", though I guess the website didn't recognize the change. I'd love it to be changed so that when I log into Minecraft it registers me as me and I can earn my exp once again.
    For the "MESSENGES:" part, at the top right corner in the box that says your username and has your avatar, it doesn't stop saying that I have "1" message when I check my Alerts and Inbox, plus I have no messages in both of those.

    Try /refresh
    If that didn't helped, you can maybe change mail and then change it back or smt.

    Doesn't work, just wish I knew how long I need to wait for my name to be changed on the website so that start earning ShotBow Exp in-game. :/

    The admins clean up and delete the posts on that thread that have been fixed. If you post there the admins will know this is your issue, and will help you with it.

    Alrighty, thanks! So the only question left is what message the "MESSENGES" mean at the top left corner of the page where your account info is.

    By having 1 message, do you mean that one or both is highlighed orange? For me it typically doesn't show a number of messages, it just turns orange. If the buttons are black, it typically indicates that I have no messages/alerts. For me when I click on the button and view the alerts or the messages (corresponding to which button I pressed) the button goes black again. Is it this that is not working for you?

    I have a orange "5" next to the black word "MESSENGES" . I haven't gotten' mail yet but I get Alerts, though once I check them the number doesn't decrease.

    OH! That indicates the number of messages you've posted on the forums, so that shouldn't ever go down :stuck_out_tongue:
    If you ever get an alert, either the inbox or alerts buttons with turn orange, and those are the ones that should change back to black once you've viewed them.

    Glad to clear that up, and hope you get your username sorted out soon :D

    OOOOHHH, haha! Alright, that's funny as ever, I couldn't figure out what the heck it was, thanks!

    Also I did get my Username sorted out by the kind staff of the community. :)
