Hi o7
I'm sure i'm not the only one coming up with this idea. Please erase if it's redundant.
My "idea" : -Make a Pilot's Service just like [Multiple Pilot Training Certificate] or [Pilot's Body Resculpt Certificate] to let player change the name of their toons. [Name Change Certificate] - Make a [Name History] just like the [Employment History]. - Make an option while searching a toon name in [People & Places] to display result by actual name or concidering name history. - Toon will still appear on watchlist even after a name change (make labels !).
Advantages : - More money to CCP ! - No toon disapearing from contact. - Can still find someone with name 'A' if he change to 'B'. |

Changed toon for character. I don't see where is the issue with toon, but whatever.
I know CCP don't want to change characters' name cause of history / reputations thingy, but hey, they've changed so many principles the last year that i'm hopping to see this coming one day. (clones loss / clone reputation / jump fatigue / Null Sec revamp) |

Sobaan Tali wrote:Well, for one thing, let me thank you for not being one of those usual vultures who just simply ask for name changes without any consideration or thought into why it hasn't been done yet. To the contrary, you have actually listed a series of acceptable trades and restrictions for said service in an attempt to answer most if not all of the issues regarding this idea's history, so again thanks for at least showing an obvious effort to accept a compromise to make this a more reasonable request. I applaud your work, good sir, and offer my +1 that this is not just another "GIMME, GIMME" thread.
Again, you have my +1, as long as it's done similar to what you have here, I'm game.
Thanks a lot for noticing it. :) GÖÑ |

Because when looking at a list of names in local you do not have time to look at all 100 for a name change history to see if they might be 'x' who is known for awoxing fellow militia members. Just to give you exactly one example. Sure a character can be sold, but they still come with history and build on that. Buy a known awox character and see how many people believe you that it's been sold for example.
As long as everything going around a character is not affected by a name change, that means, reputation -5 -10, notes you put on his character, labels you put on him in your whatchlist, if you chose to see him logging off and logging out, once you figure out that John became Peter, it's done.
I really cannot see the issue, that's just pure ''conservativ" spirit. |

Hey Man soz, i was Johnny now call me Peter plz. Why ? cause i want CCP earn more money.
Why the hell would you look at a character bio ? Employment History ? Why the hell would you put any reputation at all to an individual ? Why would you care at all about what he did in the pass ? |

Tiddle Jr wrote:what is the whole point of changing your original name? - Your name don't reflect anymore what you are InGame. - You made a mistake at creation cause you thought you won't love the game. - You want to RP with another player and marry ? :D - You bought a character and want to rename it. - Whatever else reasons.
And even if it's because you scam people, or want to spy, i think that's really inrteresting to imagine what would come up with such a new "feature". Like a "namehunter" or an "anti-spy" new profession, i do'nt know. |

Renfus wrote:if that character is in someones contact list, it should change accordingly and a notification sent ...
I thought about a notification to anyone who had "John" in his contact list when he change to "Peter", but i thought it was "easying" the awareness all players should have in Eve Online when it comes to "Diplomacy" (contact/standings/etc). But, yeah, that's a good idea.

As mentionned in my first message, Name history list, just like Emplyment history list, should prevent that, more if you had a notification to the player who put that character changing name in their contact. |
