Thanks Lucid. Do you want me to instruct anyone with questionable names to email you? I'll send them PMs if that's the case.

Sent you a PM, Kelly/Tay.

She made her username before the whole Google fiasco so why should she have to pay for it? Why can't Lucid give her the option of changing it for free?


Yeah I'm asking him about this, I had said initially to pay because my fear would be that if mods got the powers to change names it could be abused or people would break the system by reporting their friends' names saying they're deeply offended by it so they can circumvent the 20 token donation for a change.

Waiting for a reply, stay tuned.


Thanks, Bront! Fighting the good fight.

Also remember that we had our ad revenue then and it wasn't an issue. We were reported. Now it's an issue.

make sure you specify that this specific person paid tokens TO change their name in the first place

Correct, by then we'll have an answer hopefully anyway.

At the very least, just make sure everything else associated with your profile is compliant (bio, avatar, death message, etc) as those you can still change without paying tokens. The username jury isn't out yet though.

what if login was required to read the forums? that way google wouldn't index them and you're supposed to be 13 to register, so it's on underaged users if they're exposed to content that would be inappropriate for 12 and under.


This is a good idea too and I'm surprised it wasn't implemented already.

if the site shapes up can we reapply for adsense or something?


That's basically the gist I've gotten of the situation. If not Google ads, at least another service, and chances are no one would want to give us ads given how much [redacted] is visible.

Either way, this is how Lucid wants to do it now and I can't blame him after he lost his ad revenue over it. Even if he can't get it back, I doubt he'll allow us as much liberty as before.

Has Google responded to lucid at all? I mean if Google isn't gonna overturn his appeal this all is useless sadly.

It would be nice if he gave mods a name changing tool to changes these names. At least for a week or so.

I always wanted to know what it'd be like to play epicmafia on club penguin.

you cant force players to pay money to change their name. That's ridiculous
