I tried commenting on an article for the first time today. When i went to sign up and agree to the terms a window said in red letters "The username violates our guidelines"...

my username is my first and last name so I don't understand why I'm seeing this. There is no option to dispute on screen https://account.microsoft.com/profile?ocid=msedgntp

    Finally figured this rabbit hole out. Surprised they just don't tell us to go back and accept their community policy on this page.

    After changing my name, adding a completely different msn acct, I finally stumbled onto this page and just clicked the accept box and issue was resolved.
