OR display name feature where ID stays same but underneath can change display name.

I agree with Saira, our display names should remain the same to avoid confusion as to who is who once they have changed their username and also for DT members - to identify troublemakers if they change their username. Also, username changes should only be changed every 6 months.

Just my 2 cents!

Well I think that, Username Change should be allowed, but there should be some restirctions. We could do something like all I-F Groups from I-F Dazzler, IF Rockerz & Dev Team can change their username, that way we can be sure that recentally joined members (newbies, groupies) can't make unappropriate username changes. I'm sure most of our I-F dazlers and above are trustworthy since they have been with I--F for a long period of time.

I like the restriction about having a change only in 6 months, that way it will be easier to recongnize members for that time too.=)

ya dis is a gud idea

n i wil like to add dat: aftr sum1 chnes his/her id,den his/her prev id shud be shown blow in small chars to avoid confusion 4 other members

i hope am clear Embarrassed

Ummm maybe the dev team consent in changing d username shuld be there...Like a member cn snd a request to any 1 dev team member(not thru pm) but smthng like a pop up (as for buddy list)...

I guess that will keep usernam change moderated and also easier..But also only once a week u cn change d name

Changing username after every 6 months is ok but that should be approved by the admin/GMs aswell....otherwise it will create confusion..nobody will be able to remember which username is whose..
