Members can change their display name twice a year (from once)

This is to allow a buyers regret avenue to change the name back or to something else should a member choose to!

Thanks for this, but I honestly wish you'd allow us to change it whenever we want to. While some people may misuse it, most sites now allow you to change your display name anytime. I think as long as we have a timeline filled out with our names there, as well as our friend's lists and personal info, I don't see how allowing people to change it whenever they want to would be a problem.

As a possible compromise, you could assign a member ID number to everyone, which would be displayed under their avatar.

Just my two cents.

This approach would complicate the overall moderation process, shifting all moderation issues with regard to dupe accounts to Ewok.

My unofficial thoughts are that people need to be more decisive....go with instinct and live with it.

USERID name changes at will? Why?

Nope, I'm sticking with the original "Ken y Onelis" - it's all about that name recognition!

Everyone would have a displayed and permanent member ID number (perhaps right under their avatar). Again, most sites now allow you to change you display name at will. I don't see how this would hinder moderators from being able to monitor if you went by their ID number.

I don't have a clue and am simply asking: Could this idea lead to security issues in any way?

On the idea of being able to change user names: On one singles' site where I'm happy to no longer hang out, a woman picked the name "FUNGAL." It was obvious that she meant "fun gal," but to this day I wonder how much grief she received for being "of or relating to fungus." Actually, most of the members on that site were probably too stoopid to get it, si man.

Well Steven, I nominate you to prepare/update the tracking spreadsheet.
