In this topic you can post ideas for any information or additional statistics that you think should be added to the player profile. Any other ideas concerning in-game profiles (e.g. ability to hide profiles) should be posted in separate topics in the I&S section.

 

Please be aware that this topic is not about user profiles on the forum. This is only about the in-game profiles.

 

Current list of ideas:

Previous nicknames should be shown in profile

 

P.S: The author does understand that this might be a contentious issue for some--if not most--tankers.(After all, imagine some Rail-Gun_King, e.g., never mastering the art & changing later to I_Am_The_God ((using hammer, nonetheless! :D )), or, say, some Devil_Is_Here morphed into Cutsey_Puppies (((possibly in the throes of love))), etc... You get my drift, right?)

 

P.P.S.: None of the nicknames used herein have any intentional resemblance to real (in TO, i.e.) usernames as far as the author's knowledge (which--let's face it--is very limited in scope, mostly due to his sheer indolence) is concerned. So bear with him, please!  :wub:

Heh, I was just thinking of that earlier today! That might be a handy feature, though there is already a thread with an up-to-date spreadsheet of name changes, which for some reason I can't seem to find right now. :l

Thanks, am gonna look for it, too. But don't you think that page will eventually get too big for the forum to handle, though?

The topic you are looking for is found here: Old and new nicknames. ;)

 

As for the idea, it would be useful at times, but I don't have much of an opinion.

Thanks a lot, mate.

 

That topic already looks sort of messy though, right? Searching through it would be nightmare, me-thinks. 

 

The main problem with the idea that I can think of is people fearing for their privacy. Surely some of your friends will always know when you change your nick(s), but you might not want everybody to know about it/those all the time, just via a click or two of a button, at that.

 

But one thing is for damn sure: Tanki HAS kept a record of who-was-who (and when, too, maybe).

 

So let's see what people think.

Just click the "Spoiler" button in the first post to see all the reported nickname changes.

That's exactly what I do every time I visit that topic, mate. But the problem isn't that. That topic depends on user-inputs, like every other forum post, whereas what I'm proposing would show, mandatorily, all the nick changes for every single user of TO--regardless of whether they (or someone else on their behalf) have chosen to post in that topic informing us about their nick changes.

Ok, what was the purpose of me changing my nickname just for everyone to pick on me again?

Good point, buddy. Thinking along the same lines, I decided that one option could be this: Tanki might give us a choice. Whether someone wants their previous nicks shown or not in their profile can be decided via a simple click or so on said player's behalf.

What do you think?

Example:

 

 

It would be nice if the profile screen showed the current status of a player (maybe after their rank)

 

If your friend isn't answering in a game, 1 click on their profile and you know why.

 

If someone gets reported for violations you can see the results.

 

If people in chat are posting to a name that is obviously prohibited they can click and see it is actually a deleted account and not make things worse by continuing to click and post to it as well.

That is up to the developers, who probably don't scan the English forums for ideas so this is all rather moot and a pipe dream, but just in case...

If we had this thing already shown and someone proposed the idea to remove it, I'd like that second idea more... Anyway, it'd be best if we all could choose what to show and what not to. Don't you think so?
