| | Posted: | | | | I think it would be great if you could click somewhere to see all the aliases someone has used. It gets very confusing when you see a new name and know that you should recognize them, but can't associate the new alias with the old name you're used to.
I don't know if that would somehow violate their privacy, but if not, I'd love to see that added at some point. | | | Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.

| | Posted: | | | | Would make sense
Thinking of people like "Wasserglas" aka "bbbbb" aka "Skippnet50".
But as you see by this example, for the notorious the forum finds out anyway, others, like "bobb" explain publicly why the did change their alias. | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

| | Posted: | | | | If such a feature was implemented I would like to see it being optional on the part of the person who is changing their alias. They may have reasons why they don't want people to know their old alias any more.

KM Absolutely. Plus I doubt that Ken is currently storing that history anyway, so I'm guessing it could only be from this point onward. I do know that some change their names intentionally and don't want others to know. But in other cases, people change it on a whim. The perfect example is NewEnglander. I knew there was something familiar about him, but I couldn't tie NewEnglander to pplchamp until it was pointed out to me. It would have been cool to click on his name and see what he had previously been known as. | | | Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.
