i mean, if hes gonna do the hole mc username change, then it should be like your account has like an number or something, and whenever you are opped or something it should be recorded in the server data base

This wouldn't be good due to the groups of people who will change names. More people change names = The Higher the Chance you won't get the name you want
I'm sorry, but I despise this idea of changing names. Sure, I regret my name, and more so down the track because I chose it from what bullies used to call me, but honestly let's look at the pros and cons of this.
Pros:
1. You can have a cool new username.
Cons:
1. Server Owners can't ban you if you change your name.
2. It is morally confusing for people to distinguish you.
3. It's going to cause many problems down the track, whether system overloads at Mojang, or debates of innapropriateness.
This is why I don't condone this new idea Jeb brought to mind, it's just plain horrible and will lead to a new level of griefing.
Cons:
1. Like someone said before you, change the ID. Hello? Anyone there?
2. That's why it's YOUR job to keep others informed if YOU decide to change your name.
3. Following your idea, signs don't overload Minecraft, and they have text all the time! Pets don't have any issues either in mods! Inappropriate? There's an amazing new invention called FILTERING, and IGNORING!!!
And HOW, just HOW, would people be able to grief with this, considering that they grief only in MP, and there are things called other servers, bans, and admins/reports?

I dont think if matters if u change your username or not u will still be banned if thats what u guys are talking about i am to lazy to read the hole thing.And why would mojang would make name changing free becuse poeple would change there name like 10 times a day.I think they should let u change it once for free what do you guys think?
It's a great idea, the only flaw is what if someone gets banned from a server, then they just go to Minecraft.net (or whatever this will be on) and then just change there username and then do the same thing. So there should a small fee like $2 or $5.
If they do add a name change option it better come with a very detailed list of all peoples past names. Otherwise getting around bans will be much easier.
I support the idea of changing your username and I would like to suggest a few things:
- Limit name changes to 1 or 2 times only
- Create a word filter for the usernames so that we can have a safe community
- Have a small fee for name changes ranging from 1 - 5 USD
- After you have changed your username, you will have to wait at least 1 - 3 months before changing your name again
I hope the idea of changing your username will come into play soon.

why pay to change your name? what if you do have a rude or sexual name? if u dont have money then your stuck with getting banned from alot of servers just cause of your name i say dont pay to change a name
You should pay nothing. I signed up unkowning that my Username would be my Minecraft ingame name. Made me very sad.
Same here... I had no idea my login name was going to be my in-game name. Assumed that in this day and age we had gotten past this antiquated method of account management.
I would have been fine if I'd been clearly informed at the time I make my account that this was going to be the same name displayed in-game.
like for example: [ID:137626386] "MCNAME"
Runescape
Steam
Hopefully we'll be able to do this.
Sometime in the future?
