Reset users are accounts on Roblox with usernames modified through moderation actions. Typically, the reset is due to an inappropriate username, but also occurs whenever a brand account requests ownership of their brand name, and the user occupying the brand name's account is reset.

These 10 variations of reset usernames are shown below.

  • ResetXXXXXXXX [2013 - 2022] had been used through mid 2013-2022, before switching it to "UN" in 2022.
  • UNXXXXXXXX [2022 - Now] is the way Roblox resets users currently, mainly for self moderated usernames and brand resets. Can also be after the UN, it is the ticket that was used to reset the name. Normally done to get rare names for snipes.
  • yycxxxx [2009 - 2010] was a way Roblox would reset inappropriate usernames in a mass span, by resetting the username of every word that Roblox flagged. This is the first form of a reset username.

All yyc8xxx resets involve the word suck implying the numbers are not random, and all yyc9xxx and yyc0xxx accounts are fake yyc accounts that were not actual suspect of resetting.

  • [Account Deleted (id)] [2018 - Now] is done by making a right to erasure request, which deletes your whole account and your username becomes invisible. If the account was deleted before 2019, Roblox cleared all of the usernames and made them available on the signup page on October 12, 2022. For example, Krem. On the users API, it gave a status code 404. On the friends API, the account's username and display name appears. They are also above the 20 character limit. There is a bug in the friends, followings and followers list where some of these are viewable, and like Account Forgotten (id), these accounts can be followed by the friends API. You can even view the accounts username and display name with the Profiles API. Here's a curl example of some [Account Deleted (id)] account's with the Profiles API
curl -X 'POST' \
    'https://apis.roblox.com/user-profile-api/v1/user/profiles/get-profiles' \
    -H 'accept: application/json' \
    -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
    -d '{ "fields": [ "platformProfileId", "names.alias", "isVerified", "isDeleted", "names.username", "names.displayName" ],
          "userIds": [ 3616564554,4982253,26172964,3703788858,1811758065, ] }'
  • [ Content Deleted (id) ] [2009 - 2020] was a way Roblox would moderate inappropriate usernames, by banning the account and wiping their username. These are unique because they contain invalid characters like spaces and brackets. every account with this username are past the 20 character limit. (Beginning date unknown due to some of the users ~2009 being reset around 2016)
  • Account Forgotten (id) [2021 - Now] is made when it's been 2 years since the account was deleted through a right to be forgotten request. The past username comes back to the sign up page. Like [Account Deleted (id)], Account Forgotten (id) cannot load in the users API, and can load in the friends API. These account are over the 20 character limit and even though the account is terminated (well not really), it can be followed by the friends API. These accounts can also be loaded with the Profiles API. Heres another example.
curl -X 'POST' \
    'https://apis.roblox.com/user-profile-api/v1/user/profiles/get-profiles' \
    -H 'accept: application/json' \
    -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
    -d '{ "fields": [ "platformProfileId", "names.alias", "isVerified", "isDeleted", "names.username", "names.displayName" ],
          "userIds": [ 4839495860,5583294370,2880745726,4003823641,5144180777 ] }'
  • roblox_user_(id) [2022 - Now] is a way Roblox moderates specific keywords and phrases and bans all of the accounts with that specific keyword. They can also be made by reporting a user through certain means, which also can make the username roblox_user_(id). These have two underscores and can be over the 20 character limit (for User IDs over 8 characters). (a little tip for resetting usernames is by using the word fent in your username and roblox moderates it)
  • XXXXXXXX-XXXX-4XXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX [2021] was a way of Roblox resetting Roblox China usernames. These usernames are over the 20 character limit and have hyphens. They act the same way as Account Forgotten and the format in the username is a version 4 UUID. Their UserID's will start with 4023 or 4024. An example of one is c694f7b8-2fcb-4715-87c4-b55e045fc1f1 which pops up in Account Forgotten (4118984279)'s friends list.
  • username(number) [2024] are a way of Roblox resetting users with a space or a linebreak at the beginning or the end of them, for example Elsa1227(2).
  • Account Deleted (id) [2024] has the same function of username(number). Unlike [Account Deleted (id)] these users are still present in the users API and can be seen on friend lists or groups. These usernames are only applied to Terminated Accounts.
