Wouldn't it be great if there was on option that made it so no one can see what your old username was? I'd love that. I changed my username in hopes people would not know who I was, I failed horribly. You are probably wondering why you'd want no one to know who you were. Well, What if you have stalkers? Or you just want to start your ROBLOX life all over again but can not afford to make a new account? So it would be awesome if there was an option to hide what your older username(s) were. If you do not support, Please tell me why so I can find ways to improve this idea. Thank you.

Nope.

Someone scams you, changes name, hides old username, changes places, etc, gets away without being known. not a good idea k.

ROBLOX moderators and such would still be able to see your old username(s). Therefor, It should not matter.

Hello? If they scam you, changes username, then we won't know who he is. Then the player who got scammed can't report, you think moderators knows EVERYTHING?
Get to the point.

Report them before they change their username. Or better yet, Be smart enough to not fall for a scam.

Private Messages are recorded. people that join you in chats/parties are in recent activity. Forums are recorded.

There is a UserID. UserID never changes unless changed by an admin.
Support.

I plan on getting my name changed. Don't want my history to be shown.

It's not pointless, nor could it be abused. The only time this could be classed as abusable is if your user ID changed when your name did, and so on.

I like the idea of having a clean slate to start all over so others can't see who you were.

I don't support this, if ROBLOX did implement this, there would be imposters... everywhere.

@Nyaon But you can use similar characters like O to 0 but I see what you mean.

Good thing: If you had a horrible username and you changed it because, uh, people are teasing you (People tease me and call me a sheep, but I don't take that as offense because I actually just enjoy putting sparkles on sheep) and you change it and stuff and get rid of the thing that shows what your old name is, then it would be good.

Bad thing: Friends might not know who you are and remove you from their list, or not believe you when you say you were your old user.

How about this: It'll stay for 30 days, then after that, you can have the option? You can always put it back to show, though.

You could private message your friends before you change it and give them a heads up.

I wouldn't change my username, but a few years back I made an account with a dumb name (I was little). I had to quit that account when I got older and make this one.

I don't think it's a good idea,even though you hide your old user name,if you search e.g "Noob1" has his prev name of "Noob1337".

ROBLOX Mods hardly comments...
