    Hello!
    I'd like to ask how long it will take for us to be able/if at all, to change our names without losing ranks.
    Thanks

    Well this is what I think is if you change your name and you have a lot of ranks on a lot of servers your name is able to be taken and if some1 takes your name the get all your ranks even if they did not pay for them

    The thing is, minecraft now uses a system with UUIDs, so if they would switch the donor system to use UUIDs instead of names, that would be solved.

    I think that there should be a forum for if you changed your name

    But that is asking a lot of Alex, its a lot of work for him to go through and do all this for every single person who wants their name changed.

    Alex does have a lot of work on his hands as it is, the name changes certainly did not help, hopefully he will get to it and do as much as he can quickly
