I would absolutely love the ability to change our Usernames under Settings.
My suggestion is to make the first change free, and thereafter cost AP.
This alteration to the site would greatly appease me. That is all. Good day.

That would be nice. I have a suggestion similar, what if you could have a nickname, so instead of your username showing up on places(like forums) your nickname would. I suggest this because most people who want to cange there username realize your username is like your name people call you (and not what you use to log on) So if you have a username that doesn't sound like a name (ex. User94826348538) you could have your nicknaem show up instead (Flower, Spice, Sky ect.)

I like Kestral's suggestion. And to avoid multiple changings of Username, probably make it 50k-100k for every change?
Or maybe something like 1st change is free, 2nd change is 20k, 3rd change is 50k-100k and so on?

and maybe a time limit? So not to allow someone who is rich to always change their username whenever they feel like it? Sometimes it would get very confusing @.@
Maybe like a 6 month limit each change?

I like Kestral's idea the most because you wouldn't have to worry about if the username(s) is already taken or not. You could have your username that you log in with, then the nickname that may or may not be used by somebody else, because it wouldn't matter if the nickname has already been used since pings, mail and trades would go to the username, not the nickname. Also maybe, in the forums and such, your username and nickname would show up..? This whole idea prevents people from taking up multiple usernames, which would keep new users from being able to use those usernames. It, also, prevents people from being able to abuse this and use the ability to change their username as a way to scam people.

I like kestrals idea, I would suggest tho have the real username in smaller not so bold letters under the nick name, and in the chat your real username would be used. I suggest real usernames in chat bc, as much as we all would enjoy avoid reporting, it would b difficult for admins to track the real troublemaker. Although sylestia doesn't have many trouble makers, sadly I'm afraid it's possible for them to increase and issues to arise as the population increases.

well why not have it so its like having a title where the username is still on the profile just not the mane name so people visiting the profile will know who it is and no one can just lose there username and I think 50k each time would be good and yes a limit on time to :)
