Add the ability to see users' old names - Losi - 01-12-2017
After Oni reset the rep I can no longer identify people with newer names that I've known in the past. I'm rather annoyed that Oni took out the feature to see user's old names. Then he deleted everyone's rep. Thanks.

That feature was long gone before the rep reset, I'm pretty sure @pvnk has request this before.
Just waiting on @Oni to confirm if he actually wants it.
I support the idea, I get confused.

You mean the ability to see a username history from a specific user?

Exactly what he said.

I'd like to see that feature (back) as well. Sometimes I'll just lurk around which people copped an OG before.

Yes. Most Forums which allowed username changes had a history thing like that. I was wondering why this one didn't (but then again, I've only been here for a bit)

We used to have it.

Some time ago, when it was implemented it was a good idea, it still is. I didn't even notice it was gone untill I searched some members to give their REP they got from me back.
RE: Add the ability to see users' old names - Vi-Sion - 01-12-2017
Am pretty sure this was requested before, anyway i think we should have this feature again on the forum.

I don't see why it wouldn't benefit the forum. Especially since all this reputation stuff happened. There is next to no way to identify members who have changed their name, other than knowing their name changed / digging through previous threads.
