    I just noticed this while checking out my profile? Does this mean we can change our name somehow?

    BTW, I've calmed down abit.

      It means that if Max had the option to change names activated, that is where our past names would be recorded. However, we cannot change our names, so it serves no purpose :(.

            Well, if he was to turn it on, would he be able to make it so names can only be changed once a month instead of every day? That would work alot better then forgetting who is who because everyone changes their name everyday.

              I like your name now.

              =P

              Anyways, check the feature; that's what it does. I didn't know IPS built that in.

              Why doesn't Max allow the changing of names? Is it to avoid confusion?

                Do a search on this subject matter and you'll find multiple topics with my reasoning. Nick made that field when we were considering allowing it, but we decided against it.

                  I'd only change my name once to Nemphtis and that's it really. Maybe in another 5 years if I'm still here or if GSSF is still here I'd change it again or something. I never did see why we can't change it really, it's better than people secretly making new usernames just so they can use their new username etc. which creates even more confusion and alot more hassle and bull**** etc.

                  But either way, this was decided over and over again that it won't be done, so no point in sparking yet another topic where we debate about adding it or not. So I end this post with something typical of me.

                  Hoez.
