Seriously, you need to just calm down and wait it out. CypriotMerks and Noobcrew are very busy, and will complete this when they have the time.
Hunterpence1021, it may be easier if you are in game for this to happen. Noobcrew was able to fix my tag just fine when he was online. Just ask him nicely and don't spam him.
what exactly is the prefix? I was told it is the name above your head. I was also told it is your name in chat
It's to do with the colour of your name. I'm assuming your IGN is Hunterpeace1021 and if you haven't realized already you will see that in chat your name is green this removes the end 2 letters of your name and replaces it with &2 the colour code for green. Now since this has happened your IGN is not linking to original username (your username changed because it was replaced with &2) so it is using the default skin which is the Steve skin. However I heard this problem can be resolved by tweaking the server settings.
