This is terribly biased however.

Only people with a distinct interest in name changes will view the topic, and even fewer of the opponents will bother to vote against it.

It will give nothing but a skewed perspective of what people truly want.

I too voted no. People that created their character with an insulting, hurtful or simply dumb name under the pretense that they wouldnt enjoy the game anyhow and were just here to be a pain-in-the-butt to actual players, yet who now suddenly want to play this game for real, arent deserving of a name change. There's too much griefing been done for people to simply escape their responsibilities and karma. It's sad the bad apples ruined it for the few people who legitimately want the name change, but there's no way to tell. The only real way to be sure is to simply not allow this.
