[Suggestion] List previous Usernames?

[Kagerou]

This may sound like a quite odd suggestion but,

It's hard to keep track of old usernames that user's use when they get a name change as members like to make constant name changes, so I was thinking we can make a section on their profile that lists all the previous usernames that they had before their name change, it doesn't have to really be a section, just something that allows the user to keep track of the user that they wanted to post on instead of searching for a user's post in the search, but forgetting who the person is.

Just a minor suggestion, nothing really important..but it would greatly be appreciated if we have this. ._.

Sometimes they don't want their previous name to be known tho

i think this would be a good idea.. you dont always recognise people when they change there name so having maybe a place on there profile where it lists there previous usernames would be good

This forum isn't really a place to hide.

There aren't that many users that change their name to something unrecognizable huh? I don't think suggestion will be followed through since it seems like too much effort something minor. The only noticeable name changes I've had we're "KuroKami" and "TrafalgarLaw".

I do kinda get your point though. There's a couple of premium/contest winners that I don't recognize cause of their name change but it's very seldom that I can't eventually figure it out and if not, I just don't worry about it.

Actually we do have it, but you need to be a Premium member at the time to see it.. although you can only view your own.

The administrators should change the option for everyone, or edit it on our 'Profile Privacy' for only Friends/Contact.

You must be registered for see images

lel, true. Some people I dont even recognize anymore D:

My previous names were
Sexta Texta
Sexta Espada
Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez
Cursed Princess

But Ive always been known by Cursed Prince, so I dont have any identity problems.

There's already an installed plugin for this, but it's only available to some usergroups such as Premium Users and Staff Members. Regular members don't have access to it.

Well then, Can I re-adjust my suggestion for it to be members aswell?

As it is minor, it can be major for some members who have some contact with Premium Members.

I'd need a decade to type all my name changes

but my original name is Dr.Who or Imperator

Guess Dr.Who fits me well, since i change my name and ressurect regularly lol

No, you cannot.

It has to be edited by Zise and/or Caliburn, also it has to be 'okay' with Versuvio. He is the founder of this website after all.

I'm pretty sure there were some suggestions where it just had to be approved my one staff ._.

But I get your point. ^^

Sure, the decision is up to the admins after all. It doesn't take much effort to ask though.

No. Some people change their usernames for a reason whether they want to be forgotten by certain users or just want to be avoided overall. If anything, we should have a setting to where we can show people our username changes, or choose to set it to private to where only staff can view them. Other than that, no. It should remain the way it is. Besides, how hard is it to ask? Most people here simply tell you their previous usernames. I've never had a problem with knowing who's who.

Very much agree with this - its a violation of privacy that our usernames are listed for everyone to see, we should at the very least have the option to hide it.
