Hell no.


I'd be okay with an editable "nickname" or something like that, but character names stay.


Or riot.

Best argument. If you don't explain your point I cannot submit or counter it.

They said there will be a "name history" so stop crying




If name history works just like current database ... then meh

but lets say snafu becomes fubar , I should be able to go into people and places and type snafu and get you with your new name.

My argument: Names are an aesthetic issue, and a low priority one, because they don't matter when it comes to the type of things you can easily make an alt for, scams, awoxing, corp theft, etc etc, without any need for lengthy investment in time, money, or training. Names truly don't matter as anything more then a string variable that serves as an identifier in a data base, or however CCP implemented it.

Your argument: People aren't actually that dumb.

Which is actually where the argument stopped. Because 12 years of EVE are the only counter one should need submit to answer that assertion.

Ignorance is the cause of suffering.

OP is either banned or biomassed, now, I guess. W/e, though.

I am only in favor of a namechange service if it's a one-time thing after buying a character.
If you want to escape a bad reputation, change your stripes, or make an alt.

That moment when you realize the crazy lady with all the cats was right...
