Since the feature was being abused by so many people, I have simply turned it off. It doesn't make sense for people to get a name change, then the next day ask to go back. Some people were asking one every week, then apparently "hated stormcommander" after I said enough was enough. So off it goes.

There are a few reasons why you can still get a name change though. For example, if it has personal info you want to remove, if it's inappropriate, etc.
 
I hope I wasn't one of the people abusing this when I wanted a name change :/

Anyway, off seems fine :)

You should just enable it for certain groups =P This way, newbies won't be abusing the feature in any way possible. Then, like you said, if only the name violates the rules, then a name change should be requested.
 
i think its ok...
thoght, if i had a name like HI_im_11_years
and i had the same account name in 2 years, my name should be HI_im_13_years!
and if i couldn't change name, it would be a little ********. :veryhappy:
 
Wow, so there have been a lot of requests for name changes xD I thought people weren't causing a problem with the Name Change application =P Seems I was most definitely wrong.
 
There we 10 yesterday, but as far as I know, the people in this thread so far didn't abuse it.
 
Ah, not to sound conceited or anything, but I don't need to ask for a name change xD At least not for now =P Maybe I will in the future, if I go through an identity Crisis xD

I was actually suprised that my name wasn't taken yet. And a lot of other communities also still have my name available xD I'm very lucky ^.^
 
My name is unoriginal, I found out. A lot of people use it... that's the only reason I wanted a name change.
 
I think this was a good decision. I don't like it when people get name changes since I won't know who they are. I don't check name history with everyone.

Only Odd, who has had a strange username in the past. o.O
 
I've already been through my name change phase. Didn't like it.

And gees, 10?
That's what people get for thinking IRUVAC12323 is a good name choice.

I guess I'm stuck with Joee.
I don't like it =[
I'll change it back to Joe if you want, but only because 2 other people out of the 10 wanted to go back as well.

lol, he only had it for 7 min.

I don't really see the point in name changes anyways.
It gets so confusing. :/
