this has been brought up b4 but y not being able to change it once a month? this way if people make foolish changes they have to live with it for a month but at the same time being able to make smart changes to a name. only 3 characters should be able to be changed though so nothing is too dramatic of a change...wat do u think?

I was one of the first to bring this up.The reason is becuase Carlie is it's too much codes and too much work.I totally agree with your idea but look at it from a different points of view

I've noticed alot of people have been asking for username changes, it's probably because they're getting higher up in ranks, and a name like "K1LLPwN1235329085348754" doesn't look good up there in the leaderboards.

I think this idea is stupid. People can avoid bans and spam by just changing there name.

Also they can flat out spam more!

Only 3 letters? I want to change my whole name! :P

And I want to capitalize my "F" too, I missed it accidentally.

I see, taking the 6 out. Therefore, I agree, I mistakenly didn't capitalize my "F". and I wish I did. Maybe there could be a system where you can ask a mod to change your name, but only just a little bit of tweaks and all. Like dropping your 6 and capitalize my F, then it would be a great idea.

Why 3 characters would be as bad as any other ammount. Face all the cons and you idea will looks stupid.

1) Peopel could change their names to avoid ban (something similar to some elses)

2) Peopel would get confused, as I said 3 characters is as bad as any other ammount

3) etc...

but heres an Idea: you should be able to change your capitilazation because it doesn't change the url.
