    Default A Forum for name change announcements?

    When people get a name change it's like making a new account - the majority of people don't know who you are anymore. Habbox staff get the privilege of having their name change announced so everyone knows. I think it would be an improvement on Hxf if there was to be a new forum made where the admin that has just changed someones name would create a thread like they do with staff name changes to let us all know about the name change. I'm sure people would appreciate this.

    i think you also have to remember some people change their names to stop people targeting or bullying them and want to keep it confidential etc. staff get one anyway if users want to tell people they've changed their name, they can make a thread.

    Ye, staff name changes are announced because they are important for the community to know who they are and so that they know that on Habbo they arent fakes. Normal members name changes arent as important as no one will be looking for them for events etc in the community.

    The welcome/goodbye forum is just as good and I have seen a few threads in there for name changes recently

    When I first read this I kinda thought it was a stupid idea, but when you stop and think about it it makes a lot of sense. The amount of times someone has changed forum names and i've spent weeks working out whether its a new person or someone who's been around for ages...

    I doubt it'll get implemented because it seems like unnecessary work for brandon/yoshi (idk who does it these days) but +rep for the idea!

    It'll be better for quick searches for past history and stuff if all name changes are under one forum only...

    I would Personally like the main Announcements Forum scrapped and have a:

    • Staff Updates Announcement forum
    • Name Change Announcement forum
    • Development Annoncement forum
    • Community Announcement forum
    Perhaps if the Announcement forum was never posted in, but there could be four sub-forums with the above.

    Be better imo!
