I know the devs have stopped people changing names in game so that you cant be a muppet. But I think you should be allowed to change your name to admin_neededand back again, its a universal and common way of getting the attention of the server admin, who often moniters the server though an external program. Sometimes its the only way of getting rid of a llama.

    i think this should be changed, unlike cs your not changing your name to tell the location of an enemy, i see nothing wrong with changing your name in the middle of the game, i mean. what if your joining VE!! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I think people should be able to change their name in mid-game. I understand why they don´t allow it, but it´s different in CS. The rounds in CS are max 3-5 mins, while NS it can go for up to a couple of hours.

    It can be a really long wait......

    I agree with this feature because some people are just so lame they would do anything to win and because to keeps people from changing their name to attack someone.

    <b>why</b> would you want to constantly change your name?? ADIM_NEEDED also works if you spam the message gobally so that's not really a good reason to change this feature

    just my 2 cents

    no spamming admin_needed doesnt (always?) work. The system we have at the servers i admin monitors the names specifically. Then reports to irc


    <!--QuoteBegin--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->
    -AdminHelper:#xxxxxxx- FOUND (2) AdminNeeded on xxxxxxxxxx Counter-Strike 2
    <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    This is why you need abililty to change the name.
