    Minecraft Name:
    Minecraftninja05
    Suggestion:
    Allow users to apply for a town name chsnge application, specifically for claimed towns only. It must be the person who claimed it apply for it
    Reason:
    Claiming a town means the users inactive. I feel like it wouldn't be to big of a negative affect searching the town wise. Would be nice to allow it, only for claimed towns, gives another reason to rank up, many users pass ok claims simply because the towns name is something silly or unconventional
    Any Other Information:
    It will cost a fee to change the name. That amount can be determined later on, depending if this suggestion gets considered.

    This has been suggested numerous times before and I believe the issue is that there're problems with worldguard that make it difficult to implement

    This would be great if it were feasible. I certainly never really wanted towns named "Culvercity" and "Fogden." I don't even like the name "Zenith," but the location is to die for.

    -314.

    It would basically require the region to be deleted and recreated... which is the smallest problem. A bigger one is that EVERY single app that has to do with the town or town features needs to be renamed. As said above, the GA+ workload would be big.

    For everyone saying it's been suggested numerous times... It hasn't. Normal town renames has, this is for claimed towns only, specifically because you payed 500k, 1mil w/e to rank up, you claim the town, and the town name sucks

    It wouldnt have much workload at all, I was thinking maybe 100k to rename a claimed town, factor in how many people have 100k to rename the town, as well as people that 100% want to. Did I mention it costs $? Did I mention you have to claim the town to file a rename app, not just any old town your original owner of? Claimed towns are the only towns people are original owners of that they can't rename, unless they transfer it over for a steep price, of course.

    The thing is... almost every town feature ties in with the town name, these would all have to be found and changed.

    How would this tie in with contracts? What kind of rules would we need to put in place to protect residents?

    What contracts? These could only be if you used your own claim? Rules? I'm assuming the mayor wouldn't change "rules" with this... But I suppose he would be required to tag all town members if any, and notify them of this

    Suppose you've contracted me as the co-mayor of the town, lets call it "Viridian", then the town is renamed to "Saffron". It makes contracts more confusing as the towns listed may not be the towns anymore.

    I'm still not seeing the big deal. The ga edits the contract title manually, they do it for claims if it's the inactive persons mayor or president town.

    What I'm saying is, these contracts wouldn't be dealt with by a GA. Generally once signed a contract isn't brought into a situation unless there's an issue, meaning that it could be more confusing for the players involved.

    Also brings up an issue of, are town names usuable after they've been changed (ie After you rename from Viridian to Saffron, I name my town Viridian)?

    Name changes happened, even though they were a pain. Why can't this happen?

    Because, with name changes, the tags would automatically link to your profile even if you changed your name. For example, I have contracts for an eff7 about a month ago that had goblizz tags, but when you click on the tags, my profile shows up with my current username, _TrueStud13. Moderators, in turn, can find me and let me know if it needs to be voided, etc.

    With town name changes, there's no tags, and no automatic changing. Everything would be manual.

    Looks like we need a town tagging system.

    That would require custom coding in Xenforo, or at least an Add-on that would work. Equally as much work to get work and add the thousands of current towns.
