Lost username

It's most likely that the username you searched for was actually taken but they were banned. I believe that banned usernames are lost and cannot be re-used, that's what I was told in the past anyway. Sadly it looks like you'll need to choose another username.
Sorry.

yeah well i lost the account ages ago im not sure what i can do but i know that if i am able to log in through username i can recover it.

I lost an old friend it was my first friend we would play minecraft all the time but now i cant find him/her i cant remember the username and there should be an friend history

**Username removed for privacy**
