Why don't they do "display name" and "profile name"? Similar to how msn functions, you can view contacts by their display name or their profile name, so I could be "citricsquid" as my profile, but I could change my display name to "Mr Little Willy"? It seems like disallowing name changes is a bad idea, I'm happy with using my alias, because I've been using it over 2 years, but there are people who change their name every other week.

And what about people with the same name (i.e ThePresident :P)

Are we going to have to create names like ThePresident365, and other bullshit.

So let's you have 2 players with the exact same name. Does that prevent you from joining a server ? :shock:

First come etc.
Choose a unique name, idiots with names like "sniper" that everyone chooses deserve to be shot anyway.

You can't make 2 profiles with the same names :P It will say that the name is being used. Take helium for example. Some 12 year old danish guy stole my nick so I won't be able to use the nick "helium". I'm probably going to use something similar, like heliumftw or something.

ok thousands of people will play this game. Let's just say that the average population of a server is 24. What's the chance you see someone with exact the same name as yours ?

Also, what if you're in a clan ? You can't even change your clantag. If you need to make a new profile and start all over again...

This is just stupid. It's a first come first serve basis. What are they thinking ?

Not really. They need to get their crap sorted before they release the game.

You will not be able to make a profile with the same name at all. It won't matter whether you play on the same server or not. If someone in Brazil created a profile called Zaitsev you will never ever be able to use that username, unless he deletes it.
