    Your link doesn't work. And I noticed that as well today. Seems they've decided to move on from normal usernames to a username/tag system similar to how Discord works.

    There shouldn't be a problem, no. It's just an account identifier at the moment. I don't know what they plan to add to the launcher in the future, but for now it's about as consequential as the previous names.

    Could be understanding the op wrong/remembering wrong, but think the issue is that Nexon Launcher, which has always had the tag system (pretty sure since I made a new account to store all the anniversary gear and the little notification showed up), changed the tag on their main, which they would have set the tag on a long time ago. Hence why they said "everything was fine until i noticed my main accounts tag also changed !"
    Basically, problem isn't the tag system is something new, the problem is some how/for some reason, the tag system got reset on every account.

    It definitely has changed, however. Where it used to be this, it's now this. I'm not sure when exactly it changed, as I haven't so much as touched the nexon launcher from about the middle or end of February up to like three or four days ago. Worth noting as well is that it's a random pre-set name that you're given two chances to change. I'm assuming it's for whatever "rocket arena" is, since it says this:
    NexonTag can be used to identify you by your friends. it consists of a customizable NexonTag Name followed by 4-digit numbers. (Currently available only for specific games).
