    It is a valid point though. The XIV community has proven if there's something that can be abused in the game it will be abused. So using it to avoid bad rep every few weeks is indeed a perfectly valid point. Whether you feel so or not is your opinion, however in terms of abuse, it's valid.

    Much like only allowing people who are gender swapping to change names is perfectly valid too, you personally just may not agree with it.

    There is no valid reason to not allow players to change their name if they want to. SE should not be spending resources
    SE is a company, they're the ones running the show they can deem what they can/should/don't/won't/shouldn't need to spend resources on.

    That is not something that has been proved by the FFXIV community. That's human nature.

    What are you actually saying here? Are you saying that the concern is valid, or that you think people will use name-changes every few weeks/months to try and avoid the concequences of their actions? Of course people are going to try, but name changing has never worked in any other MMO to escape a bad rep, and it won't work in this one either.

    Much like only allowing people who are gender swapping to change names is perfectly valid too, you personally just may not agree with it.
    Again, what are you actually trying to say here?

    SE is a company, they're the ones running the show they can deem what they can/should/don't/won't/shouldn't need to spend resources on.
    Yes, SE is a company and, yes, they also run FFXIV. I don't see how that has anything to do with my position.
