It’s dependent on a few factors. For example, of the valid reasons, the top accepted reason would probably be for safety, then gender dysphoria.
However, even if it’s a valid case, it is still rare.

Username Change

I changed my username. If you want to do the same, you must have one or more of the following wrong with your name.

Inappropriate (Swears, making fun of people)
Contains personal information (Last name, Email, phone number)
Causes gender dysphoria (If you are trans but your username has your deadname or pre-trans gender)

If you wish to change it, please contact them and state your problem. You just asked for it to be changed. I don't see an area where you stated why you wanted it changed.

An evil kumquat ate my first username lol

They/He/It/She in order of preference

A little part of me dies inside when someone says, “He/She” instead of just using they-

Try to refrain from saying, ‘No support’. It comes off as extremely negative. “The forums are for criticism! Don't post it you don't want it!” Agreed. But I never said that you should agree with everyone. No suggestion will ever be perfect
What sounds more constructive?
“No support, people would spam with it”
“This would lead to a lot of spam, since people can't get away from it. Not to mention, it might upset a few people with the way it's implemented”

In #1, you didn't help OP at all. You said you didn't like it, and why. Nothing else. Not even what was causing the issue of spam
In #2, you pointed out the flaws and the root causes of them. Flaws shouldn't always get a suggestion absolutely ignored

And simply supporting doesn't always help either. It's not a voting system, it's improving your ideas. There's going to be cons, there's going to be flaws, and that's the point of the suggestions. No suggestion is ever 100% perfect in any way
Here are some things you can look out for:
-Are there any flaws/cons that haven't been addressed or fixed?
-Is this idea fully flushed out? Or are there some questions you can ask?
-Are there any flaws that you know how to fix or do you know how to flush something out a bit more?
-Is there anyone else who is confused and needs some clarification?

If you don't have to do any of these, then you can move on!

Is a suggestion unable to be added because it's just impossible? Point out why and have them decide what to do next
But still, try not to say ‘no support’
