I didn't want to post on any forums anymore but I have questions relating to this name-change update and I don't know how else to ask. Are you keeping track of all the previous names that a user has had so a trail is made for the problematic users that are trying to avoid consequences by using name changes? Will previously used names become available for use again, either by the same user or by someone new? I have huge concerns (I don't know why I care at all about this site anymore) surrounding these things so I'd like to know. Thanks.

Yes, a user's previous usernames are kept track of in the same exact way they were when we were doing username changes manually. And yes, previous usernames will become available for use, also same as it worked before this change. ^^

Thank you for explaining, and so promptly. :)

Any chance that these functions could be locked behind a verification email?

I have no complaints. I'm really happy about username and email changes being allowed now, or more supported I should say. Here's hoping Toxtricity becomes avaliable someday so I don't need 2 i's anymore

@RainbowSyrup - The goal of manual username changes was so we didn't have to ask for date of birth or email address when changing usernames since being logged in is considered enough verification now.
