Name Changes

Post by gcwca_4_life »

Concise description:

The ability to purchase a chance to change ones username. I'm not saying make it an unlimited option, maybe limit it to once per every so often, or maybe once per person?


Specifics/Details:

Exactly as stated above. A chance to buy the opportunity to change ones username on the platform.
I do feel there should be a subsection that would list players previous usernames, that way there would be no confusion as to who it is.


How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:

How would it not? It would lessen the chances of someone making multi accounts just because they don't like their username they picked. It could possibly bring more players back, because who wants to play under a username they don't like?
And it would be more income for the administrator/owner.
More income means you could do more to the site, and with the mods that wouldn't be hunting multi accounts they could have more time to help grow the community.

This is a good idea, unless there's already a list somewhere that I'm not aware of.

The rest is not so good, why pay for something you can get for free if you ask nicely...

How about putting a asterisk next to the name so you have an idea that this might be someone you don't want to play.

That would be a clear violation of the rules and I would lose my account.
Or are you illiterate and couldn't read the whole no multi account rule when you set up your account?
Or are you admitting to having multiple accounts yourself because you didn't like the usernames?

Because nothing is free in this world, except for pets, women and children and last I checked I was a grown man that had to work for everything I wanted.
If that means paying 10 bucks to change my username that I set up when I was barely near adulthood to keep playing on this site then that few bucks is the sacrifice I must make.

I'm confused. Your response isn't related to the suggestion made at all. If you wouldn't mind, please do elaborate for me? Thank you. :)
