It's ugly and redundant. I'd rather see brief instructions on clicking the username changes listed under the username changes line in the member profile.

Please make it go away! *whine*

I would PM that suggestion to Tiberius. I know he's pretty busy at the moment, but I know that he coded the feature as a convenience to members, and if it's not wanted, then perhaps it can change.

Personally, I think a little widget that would ordinarily hide the information but display only on click would be cool.

Like any changes it will just take some getting used to.

Or, people could just stop changing their names.

Oooops! Too late for SOME!

Personally I find it rather usefull. There has been some namechanging roadrage these last few weeks and I'm grateful to know who's behind the curtain.

Personally, I don't mind all the name-changing. I like meeting new people... Tongue

Problem I have with it is not only does it create a list of long names for me and it's off-putting but then it doesn't even do the full list hehe.

My truly full list should say The Member Formerly known as: EvidenceVsFaith, EvidenceVsDelusion, DoubtVsFaith, HalcyonicTrust, EvidenceVersusFaith at least. I had at least 2 more names.... and the list is annoying long already lol

Tbh I think it's a forum update thing or something because on my profile it doesn't recognize my first 2 names either.

You know I am biased, but people that change their names often should get 2 cactii up their asses.

When I changed my name I was looking for some title I could change to inform people but there wasn't one. I did consider putting it in a signature but I prefer not to have a signature. So I rather like the new feature myself. Besides I have also wondered who some people are after they have changed their names.
