You were gone from the game for long enough to have your username become up for taking. Someone took it and well you still need a username, so thats where _old comes from.

You can email accounts@ppy.sh explaining the situation and they should be able to help.

Why should I email anybody if My nick was taken without any foreshadowing? The problem is on their side.

Not to mention predatory paid mechanism of Nickname changing.

I'm sorry but that's just how it is, me or the mods can't do anything about it.

usernames are not meant to be a solitary confirmation of your account and a lot of services require people to contact the user support to require a name change, also quite a few services don't have leaderboards and history to preserve like osu! does, the paid service of a username change is a deterrence so that people can allow for influential people in the game to be recognized, staff to be recognized, and other important people.

contact accounts@ppy.sh or pay for the name change, there is no much else that can be done.
