Any suggestion that there are many valid reasons to change a name is garbage, and you know it. The problem is not that wanting to change a name is unsupportable, nor that there are consequences really (there should be and i'm just a stickler for having to lay in the bed you make)- the real reason is that it will be misused and abused.



how, if I may ask?

I'm pretty certain this would be in the game already if CCP weren't worried what kind of tantrum the playerbase would throw this time and how many people would actually quit.



I tend to agree with this, it's not easy to believe that in 10 years no one had this idea.

You do your bed and then you sleep in it. EVE is all about results of your actions. Granted, easily circumenvented by the use of alts but currently at least the one characters you used for crap gets "ruined" by its reputation.
Hypothetically..... If "consequences" meant anything more in this game than just a catch all brick wall to different ideas like a name change or others...

WHY DO WE HAVE 3 BIOMASSABLE NAMES ON EACH ACCOUNT? Accountability would mean you screw up a "toon's" rep... UR STUCK WITH IT. Each account should have 3 permanent toons, never replaceable.

Accountability should be reflected across all toons on the account... Doing bad alt(doing unsavory) on the same account as your trader indy alt(funding unsavory), your money source should be just as targetable as your jerk off alt, in the eyes of the law, funding terrorism makes them as responsible as the guy placing the bomb on the school bus or putting on the suicide vest...

Not just make a name then trash him and make another and trash him and make another and trash ect ect ect ect rinse and repeat

So how dose the the hypocritical idea of consequences taken to the logical conclusion.... but that wouldn't agreeable game play, being responsible for what you do

No cuts, no butts, no coconuts!

Forum alt, unskilled in the ways of pewpew!
