Invisible (questionmark aquares) username in-game.
Hi.
After changing my username a few times, now mine is not visible in-game.
I either see an empty space or some squares or question marks.

I can't find any contact info for Steam Support to have someone look at it and help me.
Could you point me to the right direction and help me resolve this and make my username visible correctly?

That's because the symbol you're using in your name is not available in that game.

Use Latin characters for your name. Thats the surest way for having your name to display properly.

I use only latin/english, no symbols.
What I did was because I didn't want my previously used names visible, I filled my list with empty entries to make them invisible.
Now my main name is not visible.

Some games don't like certain characters used.

This is game specific.

RIGHT NOW, your name is just "monad", without the tofu in front.

Yes! But in game it is just empty when I press TAB to see the teams. It happened after I deleted my previous used names.
That is why I am looking for a Steam tech guy, if we can still get a hold of them..

Delete all the non-printable characters from your name. Set a proper name containing Latin-characters only. Last time I checked, you had a couple of non-printable characters in your user name still, those of course can't be printed (properly).

I changed it again and put everything in capitals. I also cleared all the previous names too. Will check if it worked..
