Did you read the thread? I mean every time it happen to me it was a problem. Like I said a changeling doing it or having it done to you by a geneticist power of someone using a chem is fine because those are done with in game methods. But the times I had someone do it to me via the name prompt or just starting the game using my name they were incredibly nasty about it. Again the times people join the game with a funny version of my name like Bob Ludbutt or whatever is okay by me cause it really makes me laugh. But every other time I have experienced this (except for the other ways I just stated) it has been a bad time, I can't speak for anyone's else experience but every time it happen to me it was a really bad time and by the way this has only happen to me at least 4 times and I'm not counting the ways this can be done that I view are fine which are stated above. Like said in the OP here it is a really cheap way to steal someone's identity from a gameplay point of view on-top of all that.

Given that we have in-game methods of stealing identities, this feels kinda cheap and like a real abuse of the name change.

So my suggestion would either to be remove the prompt (Less desirable) or make it so you cannot change your name to one that already exists on the station.
