So we asked for a feature to view previous user names, however what we got was not really anything at all since it was simply hidden by having a private profile. What we wanted was something like this:
Notice how it gives all Anomaly's previous account names?
And what we also wanted was for it to work regardless of profile Privacy because trollers and toxic players can just put their profile to private so we can't see who it really is. Example:
Max, do you think you can rework the feature to show previous names like this? So that it shows ALL their previous names, perhaps in a scrollable dropdown for some users who have changes names many many times?
That too. I mean there's not even a need to pay the extra 50k, just use a private profile and save that 50k.

But this tells us nothing about their previous names and would require memorizing it. Having it the same as Steam would be the best option as it directly tells us, tells us what the previous names were and doesn't require we memorize someones ID.

Yes, warmerise is the greatest example of all games (why do you see bad things in other platforms, why don't you consider how to design and improve bugs)

Well I was using Steam as a example because it had the only good idea I know of of showing someone's previous names. I really wasn't using it an an example towards free name changes. But yeah thanks for considering, it's a shame that it can still be hidden, but whatever as long as we can see all the names before the feature existed to pay to hide it.
