they gave you a headache. you don't create a half working system and then force people to use it, even if they can't. if this was a possibility at all then they should never have enforced migration with deleting accounts. That is equivalent to rolling a dice and deleting random accounts at will.

[@Swagsire]

Thank you so much for sharing this! I just want to say that this is not even something limited to just you. I'm in a similar boat with Mojang refusing to help me migrate, my account also being so old that I use my username to login. In fact, if the comments section tells anything, I’m sure that there are als countless other players who registered their accounts in the legacy account period who simply can't transition due to technical reasons like you who aren't being heard simply because they never had the platform to voice this. I too was diligent in trying to transition my account from the day Mojang accounts were introduced (yes to those reading, there was an account type before both Mojang and Microsoft accounts) but even after an endless amount of ticket creation and all the time I spent trying to migrate long before the deletion deadline was announced, and despite having all the other information they asked for, Mojang support refused to help because I didn't have the ID or access to the email. So here I am today, having just recently bargained once again with them for the last time, helplessly watching my old account with all the capes I acquired over the long period I played Minecraft getting deleted. :( It's not even that people haven't been seeing the warnings, we have, it's some people just legitimately cannot transition and Mojang support refuses to help or do anything about it. Anyhow, thank you again rekrap for sharing your story and thanks to everyone who read all of this! I really hope that Mojang will hear and do something about this. Please spread this video around, everyone. ❤️

You should try asking an employee if the names for non-migrated accounts will become available after the deadline. Even if you can’t get the actual account back you might be able to rename your parkertwo account if the name becomes available.

[@dracoviod]

Very likely name scalpers will be running scripts once non-migrated accounts start getting deleted. So there's basically a 0% chance of getting your name back. Even more so if you're a youtuber and publicly mentioned you are going to lose that username.

[@First_commenter]

@@kaishedan37 also some jerk would probably snipe the name because it's linked with a KZbinr

[@SparkKnight556]

@@kaishedan37 There are also many different things that are connected to the account itself. For example, you may have bought passes on certain servers, have data and progress, and can also view your account age on the Minecraft website (last I checked). Unfortunately, all of that data is connected to the account's UUID, and not the username, so changing your name back to the old one won't do anything to get that stuff back. Capes are also tied to accounts, so if you lose your (no longer obtainable) mincon capes, there's no way to get it back. Also, people will 100% try to snipe his account's name as soon as it's available, so he likely will lose his gamertag.

[@piehappy0]

As someone who had only just purchased my own account after almost 10 years playing, i can only imagine how upsetting this is. Hope your going to keep your account🙏

[@kacperkonieczny7333]

I also purchased my account somewhat recently, 1.5 year ago

[@Pepso8P]

I am surprised you didn't buy it earlier if you enjoyed the game enough to play it for so long. If anything, with all the recent changes, I would be less inclined to buy it now.

@@Pepso8P At first I played on the phone, then I borrowed account from my older brother. He recently sold it to his friend, so I was left with no choice. I love the game, so outside stuff doesn't bother me.

[@Greatyork]

there are records of minecraft going out of their way to help people in special cases (getting a 2 letter name back, or one of the players who owned over 100 accounts being able to migrate them from legacy to mojang with special help), so maybe if mojang sees this they might make an exception, although i highly doubt it

[@Randomwords247]

Man it sucks so bad that this has been such a hassle. I know its a fairly unique scenario but it's wild that they don't have any way to like sort this or help out with it, or at least haven't so far. I really hope they'll be able to sort something in the next three days, or at LEAST release the username so you can reuse it. Because as far as I know, they're not released usernames of the soon-to-be deleted accounts? Which is really unfortunate Best of luck though

[@QualityTheKing]

Was quite sad but definitely a great learning experience and a wake up call on how cruel everything is.

[@lnee]

Actually you could start class action lawsuit where a bunch of people were affected by this one problem where no longer to access their account under the same terms that they could and it has been known for migration to be hard and burdensome on the customer so it's going to be expected that people who just don't want to deal with it are going to lose their account but that's not their fault they bought the game assuming that they wouldn't have to deal with any of that and the deal was that you logged in with a password and a username you can play the game but now you can't

I think mojang should just keep the system, and force any new players into the new system. Locking people out of a service they paid for is not exactly great, as there are many people who left the Minecraft community temporarily and will inevitably come back to a unplayable Minecraft launcher.

I sincerely hope you get ur acc back. Until then we can only hope. Don't lose hope, mojang will eventually come

[@indigo_onion]

If it doesn’t work out, you could consider contacting some username snipers because in 3 days all account that aren’t unmigrated, they are completely deleted. You could buy a new account and try resniping your username as soon as they are deleted on a new account(this Tuesday 11:00 est) . Hope it works out well

[@gooseosessooe]

I wouldnt trust User snipers as it's a shady business and is only being supported on mutual trust Of course there are user snipers that work for the greater good but User sniping is against the eula and could get you in more trouble than it's worth I really doubt that he could get it without help from profs or stealing the user as i bet a bunch of people are gonna try to get that user

The one (somewhat) bright side of this, if they delete all the old mojang accounts, then all the usernames of lost accounts can be now be used again... At least, I assume. Who knows maybe they'll be dumb and still consider those names taken even if the accounts can't be accessed.

a similar situation happened to me.

I'd been through about the same few on and off emails with mojang support for about the same four years length of time. I was asked to give bank statements and of course those were deleted after five years In my case and the account was just about just as old as the one talked about In this video. I sit here tonight helpless as I await the 19th to arrive to lose access to my original minecraft account forever. It's unfair, but there's nothing I can do about It...
