Consistency of name is an important part of an online community, otherwise you have no idea who you're talking to. Unlimited, user initiated name changes would be a very bad thing. Red Iron Crown had a good answer for that a while ago, @Lo Var Lachland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanamonde Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Each time someone gets a name change, one of the few staff members with admin power has to log into the control panel, check to see if the new name is already in use, tell the person tough noogies if it is, and if it isn't in use, put the new name in and save it. Might not sound like much, but it's a few minutes each time, and doing it over and over again would quickly add up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I imagine, while most people here wouldn't abuse it, there would a be a few that have to have a new name every few days... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
