Hello!
Well, I'd like to ask something...I guess many do know of the fact that name changes are forbidden about 2 years ago...But then, why do a few mods that I've stumbled upon have changed their names way after the forbidding of name changes? Of course, it was written before by parallelzero:
"Again, we're sorry for the inconvenience and wish we could keep doing them, but remember that name changes were a privilege, not a right."
And there IS the word "privilege" and maybe mods DO have the privilege, but still...this was written by Lightning:
"Well, technically we'd still be "able" to change any name, but that doesn't mean we will. :/ The whole point of this is that changing names isn't good for the database so we're discontinuing the option. Staff are not exempt."
"Staff are not exempt." So, wouldn't this mean that mods are also forbidden to change their name? Then why can they do so, actually? Well, in truth, they actually asked for an Assistant Admin's help to change their very own username...And they might just have access to the DB, much like any other PC Site Admin. But still... Can anyone answer? I'm just a bit curious...
(Sorry if this would flare any problems...I hope not.)
