Users should be able to change there own names whenever they want to, or let them change it only once a month or something.
With character limits as well.

With this, Hakker would not have to be bothered with the name change topic.

Then that would be annoying

IMO no, because in the end everyone will end up abusing it, and the mods will have a hard time keeping track of users.

How would it be annoying?

@Geno: thats why I said maybe a once a month limit or something, but I see where your coming from.

There's no way to limit it, besides giving a warning, and that'd be hard on the mods.

@Cooby
Oh? :0 Well, I still think it'd be a bother.

You can do this on a lot of forums, and other people see your orginal account name, no problemo.

It would need the month restriction. Although your account is linked to your IP and not your name (IIRC?), abusing every day is pretty worthless then.

I don't think users should be able to do this themselves; the best idea would be for someone other than just Hakker to change names.

Saves time and makes things convenient for Hakker.

Plus this
Quote:
- Your name may not be a parody/tribute/whatever to another user's name. For example, you can't name yourself after another member, then put the word "jr." after it.

Which ends to total abuse of the name changing system that NiNjabaNaNa came up with

It's annoying to have people changing their user names every two seconds, for now just stick with this:
