That could lead to terrible chaos. |

As long as your old name stays reserved, could be very funny. In fact would be a wonderful way to make noobs bumhurt. |

I don’t think JB is talking about an actual name change, Fort. It seems like it would work like a filter where the name auto-displayed as the prank name for the week.
I think it would be awesome. Log in to see images! |

tbh, not a very good idea. It would end up annoying you logging in IDC fidning out you’re name isn’t changed could confuse tons of people…wait can I change my vote. Log in to see images! |

hmm i voted yes but on more consideration it might be a real pain in the bum.
p sure there are better things to implement instead of this. like rainbow fabulous person colored names, a thing to make your character say things like “I’m a fabulous person!” while you’re in chat, and temporary paid emots and wordfilters. |

TBH this could ruin a lot of things to. I prank Mercwithmouths name(only useing for example, first name that comes to mind when thinking of supersrs and supersrs friends.)I prank my own name to MercwithMouth, I go into IDC calling his friends fabulous persons, ruining what people think of him. |

That’s more like it. Although that might annoy the **** out of other posters as well, which is a consideration.
How about putting a player’s IDC posts in spoiler tags for a week? Log in to see images! |

No, you wouldn’t be able to use names that are already in our database.
If you wanted to change your own name, there’s a way to do that for BP already. Maybe for IDC it could be fun though. |

You don’t type it now, you click a bumon. Also, just because people agree to it doesn’t mean they abide to it. |

Actually, I just realized the name filter would be pointless as long as the “bumholes Online” could still be popped up to view the player names.
As a bp purchase it would likely be very underused because it would be so simply to check. Log in to see images! |

Interesting. Maybe test it out for a weekend and see how much confusion arises from it |
