Why doesn't codeforces allow me to change my username to something else because "i didn't participated in enough contests"

But it allows me to change it to adbvjkankjfma without any problems

OH MY GOD WHY WOULD I EVEN TRY THAT

Again this year, if you've participated in at least 10 rounds, you can request the handle of an inactive participant. This means the participant must have had a period of activity on Codeforces lasting at most 180 days, and this activity must have occurred in 2022 or earlier. The inactive participant must not have posted comments, messages, or similar content, and they must not have participated receiving 'Accepted' in more than 2 contests. In such cases, the handle will be automatically renamed, and the original owner will be notified via email. If the original user requests their handle back, we will roll back the change and restore your previous handle.

Sorry to hear that. It's necessary to be active in the coming 2026. And don't forget to change it next year lol.

You’re the genius who wrote a random sequence of characters and then clicked Change handle as if it were a brilliant idea.
