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?

But really, what if you came up with a better username? Restart your account?

What if you could transfer your points to a new account? But then there were no more points on the account that the points came from. S someone could make a new account with a better name, but keep the points.

And to answer your question to this proposal: I don't think anyone would give up there points for anyone else.

Transfer points? If that were to really happen, I would have over 30000 points right now because of all the side accounts I created.

Okay, I can see people are trying to tell us that people can avoid bans that way, but seriously, can you be that near sighted?
1). Mods can probably keep track of name changes, they aren't robots or anything.
2). On the players profile, you could have something like:
MarkedTarget
Previously MarkedTarget6
3). If someone gets warned by a mod, or does something wrong, a mod could just ban them from name changing, so they can't get their new identity.

Face all the cons and you idea will looks stupid.


It doesn't look that stupid, but I couldn't shoot this idea down more. People pick their names for a reason, but sometimes they change their mind. So what? Its not like the e.d of the world

But what if they made it possible to delete your account and before that transfer them to a new account

I don't think transfer would be that good, because then there would just be more ghost accounts floating around, clogging up the population.
