Great idea! Changes could be restricted to once a year.

How about a small one-time charge for name changes? Then I'm sure they'd be allowed.

How much did you pay for yours?

What would that do to ignore lists, buddy lists and when just looking to avoid people in tournies. What about the gbaway script?

Say you took time away from the site and came back looking for familiar friends and all their names changed?

I don't think players should be allowed to change their user names.

if they were your friends they would contact you.

if they were not they might just want to be left alone.

under your logic sir, one should never move from the village to town.

$US10 per year. To get the name change I had to pay for a rate increase I would otherwise not have paid. Yes, I do put my money where my mouth is - do you?

you can spit in the soup.

you can cat call me from the back of the bar.

do your best in public sir. ( but remember, we all see from what box you look for what you throw...it tells us much from where you look around for ammunition ).

Absolutely. I'll put up $US10 if you'll change your name to Snotty.

I'd love to take you up on that, but some South African beat us to it by 1000 days or so.

If they want a new user name they can kill the old one off and resubscribe/start a new ID and not divulge who they were previously.

However, several have done this and come back and let us know that they were the user previously known as "XYZ". This defeats the purpose of the change.

Changing the ID but leaving the previous ID in the user profile also defeats the purpose of a change in user name if they are trying to distance themselves from the old ID.

When you initially sign up you are told the name cannot be changed and to pick one you are happy with. If people are unable to read that and make the appropriate decision at that time, then tough.
