Is there a psychological reason they don't implement this or something? Do they believe seeing our name take up the middle of the screen all day long make us feel more connected to our character and keeps us playing? I don't know what the reason is, but they need to add this feature quickly. They already have a full window for "name" options, which is currently just 'everything on' or 'everything off', I am sure adding a middle option to the slider would not be an issue.

Of course, knowing SE, the first implementation of this would require 7 pop-up windows to turn the name off and on.
other mmo's do have this, section 8 prejudice a online shooter has it, as does legue of legends i do belive
