"Your nickname has already been taken by another reviewer." How can I get this fixed?
I've had the same nickname on my Micro Center account since at least 2015. I just tried to submit a review using this somewhat-unique username and it says that the name is already in use. Yeah, it's in use by me. There are no reviews by anyone else using that name. What am I supposed to do to get it to let me use my name?

Please open a Micro Center in the Triangle (Raleigh–Durham–Chapel Hill)
Hi Micro Center team, Any chance you’d consider opening a store in North Carolina’s Research Triangle? This area is a huge tech hub (RTP + Duke/UNC/NC State) with tons of PC builders and gamers, and the nearest Micro Center is hours away. A Triangle location would stay busy—people here would 100% show up.
