Title: No more Name Changes
Post by: Kevin on December 30, 2012, 05:28:10 PM
We're not doing anymore name changes for a while.

Do not ask any other Administrators.

Does that include if you donate for a name change?

What if I asked an administrator for a name change before this topic started and they said yes?

I think you should add an automatic name changing system on the forums for donators to use once a month. Would be neat.

I say no more name changes even for donators, people having to continuously add new account names is a pain. It's a waste of effort and space for friends.

Just be more careful with what you make your name.

We may set up an automated system for donator name changes and do some backend trickery so that the friends list will auto update with the new name if someone changes their name.

The only problem is that people who change their name many many times will be hard to recognize, so we may add like a command to view people's previous names or something like that. However, some people change their names so that people don't recognize them, so I'm not sure about that either. ???

If people are worried about others finding out who they are when they change their name, they should definitely create a new account. If you've posted on the forums at least once before you've changed your name you're practically busted straight away.
