Latest news from Jeb...

Change Your Minecraft Name?
This week on Minecraft.net, Jeb hinted that username changes
might be a feature in the near future, something that Mollstam
is looking into currently. While there is no set date - or even
a hinted one - for the feature's arrival, it would seem that
it's more a matter of "when" than "if" now.
I know I'm fine with mine, but it is a nice feature!

Would it change the player's ign all together? For a cost or for
free? If so, the only problem I see is that it might be harder
to research players to see if they have been banned from other
servers, etc.
Thanks for posting this, Wolf!

I agree with Estemi on that.
Although I think they would add an individual player code that
is unique for each account and that would be what is added to
the whitelists and bans.

Thats a good point!! Hadn't even thought of that yet. A good
argument for why server owners would have to ensure they ban
IP's, not just users. For the most part, we do both. And I do
it both servers, too!
Not sure yet though how the proposed feature would work. If it
would be just a one-time change, or what.

I sure hope so!
Please do keep us updated on this, Wolf. Here's hoping for the
best with this feature!

I've been waiting for this feature for a long time.
Our accounts are already identified by a unique number. I
imagine that the Admins/Moderators will start using this unique
number instead of the username.

It would be nice if they have a way to identify them, like a
number as such, or something. I can see your point, to, as to
why you'd want to change it.
Time will certainly tell!
