It's not cool to call your opponents losers.

This is self-irony. I've never called anyone a loser. I insulted someone because I called myself a loser, seriously?

You abuse losers. You kick people when they're down. You're not calling yourself a loser. Or, if you are, you did it wrong because that's not how it comes across.

now look whose " angry" eh

You should make your new name Winner_Buys_Dinner. It also rhymes and teases, but is maybe a bit more positive. :-)

loser abuser is just a name and he is a competive player with good sportsmanship

Hey man! The fact that they didn’t tell this to you 3 years ago in my opinion is crazy. I certainly don’t find it inappropriate at all. I think Lichess should let you rename i t. It is totally unfair. They can do it if they want. Good luck bro, hope it all gets sorted out! Cya around! (hopefully)

It's a derogatory nickname. Probably expressing how he or she feels. Then again, it could be directed intentionally to others to disrupt their mind set on the chess game.

He should still be allowed to change his name.

Yes, it would be nice to be able to change a name or hide it from public view. So not really changing it but giving it like a surname.
