"Evolving" Usernames? What a joke.

alice
For the moment, I've cancelled my Nitro. I don't have plans to re-subscribe unless the number tag system stays. I'll say what I sent in feedback to Discord here: "The way you're planning to implement the new username system with a lack of number tags will cost you money. This is because people will start cancelling their Nitro Subscriptions in protest, since many, many people actually use their Nitro Subscription to have the username they want, the way they want. This system you want to implement is reductive and useless. It will cause people to abuse the system and start making money from people who want 'high demand' usernames. You're forcing a certain amount of people to change their current usernames that they customised themselves, and you really expect us to be happy with that? The number tags are useful, because they allow privacy if people want to keep to direct messages and friends rather than huge servers -- which a lot of people do. It prevents sinister actions like impersonation and stalking, as well. Guess what will happen if there's no numbers though? I've attached a screenshot of my username right now. I've had this username for MONTHS. It means a lot to me because me and my partner currently have a common, matching theme, and we most often talk through direct messages rather than our shared server. Do you seriously think I want the stress and competition of having to find a new username? The loss of that matching theme? The complete lack of ingenuity of a display name? No thank you! I'm a current Nitro Subscriber and I like to use my Subscription for a variety of reasons. But if you seriously implement this change, I for one will definitely be cancelling my Subscription. It just won't be the same without the current system."

    You are right, and thank you for canceling! That is the most direct way to get them to pay attention.

    Also, please add your vote and comment to the main thread here! It's REALLY garnering traction. https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/14337329256983--Do-NOT-add-The-new-discord-usernames-system

    it is important to note that some users may find the "Evolving" usernames feature to be inconvenient or confusing. This feature automatically changes a user's username like "Unifi Speed Test"  to a randomly generated name after a certain period of time, which can make it difficult for other users to recognize and interact with them.

    i got scammed in the game after scammer using nitro to duplicate trusted seller discord id.

    i think i never see any communication application that has a feature for user to changes his identifier identically to another user. such a big joke feature.

    i feel disapointed after get scammed and know this feature is allowed two or more user had same identifier id. 

    nitros feature prioritize money over convenience

    I understand your frustration and concerns about the potential changes to Discord's username system. If you have already provided feedback to Discord through their official channels, such as their feedback forums or support channels, you have taken the appropriate steps to express your concerns. Discord's team regularly reviews user feedback and takes it into consideration when making decisions about their platform and features.

    It's always valuable for platforms like  TM Speed Test or Discord to hear feedback from their user base, as it helps them understand the impact of potential changes on their community. By expressing your concerns and providing feedback, you contribute to the dialogue and potential decision-making process.

    Honstly i have no issue if any site changes my username from tm speed test unifi to any other user name. If i do not like the name i'll change it again its not like its your Surname that goes on your ID.

    I totally get your concerns about the new username system on Discord. It seems like a significant change, especially for Nitro subscribers who value personalized usernames. If you're navigating these challenges and considering alternatives, you might want to explore feedback from a content marketing agency. They can help you articulate your concerns effectively and engage with the community for a smoother transition. Good luck!
