No, they cannot.[violet] wrote:The game code uses a nation's name as its ID, an unfortunate design decision that we are stuck with. Renaming a nation would break all references to it in regions, player Dossiers, the WA, etc.

Which falls under the "is not something that can be done quickly or easily due to poor design decisions by amateur programmer Max in 2002" mentioned in my last post. That would be setting up a proper database structure and master accounts- on the docket, but unlikely to happen any time soon due to the amount of work it will take and the current system working well enough for our purposes for the time being.

You are under the mistaken impression that people actually read the FAQ. They people who need the information in the FAQ, both gameside and in the Technical forum, are among the least likely to "read the instructions". Adding even more Q&A further reduces the possibility that our target audience will read it all the way to the end.

As for the "display name/nickname" idea, that one is unlikely due to just being an inadequate bandaid for the issue that only creates headaches both for moderation as it opens up a large new venue for malicious impersonation and confusion among the players. Unless display names/nicknames were limited the same way nation names are where you can't use the same one as anyone else, which kinda defeats the purpose of the entire thing since instead of people just trying to hoard desirable nation names, you'd have them using junk nations to do so with desirable nicknames too.
