How about charging creds to to change your name. This will give ds some income and slow down the name changing. Lets say 100 creds 1st time then increasing it bi 100 each time after. I think this will slow down the faction hoppers and and we will know who ppl are so they dont rejoin a fleet with different names. ideas?

How would you feel if you parked your bike in the same rack at school every day, and one day they tell you there's a five dollar fee to park your bike there every day?

I know the concept has been brought up before with the staff but there has not been a decision. Maybe if you get some support behind the idea then it would be considered again.

ill say it once again as i diid when i was a dev.
Credits cost money. Credits should be used to unlock new features, or to make current ones more desirable.
Used to you could farm blue enh from elites. Then a credit system and store was put in. Now you can mostly only get enh from the store. Aka took away a feature and now charge us to have it.
Thats sort of the same thing thats going on with the fleet level system.
Credits for new stuff.
Garage space
color trails
weapon colors
hull colors
ship names
ect.
Charging us real money for things we already can do for free strikes the wrong cord for me.
Else, you need a way to earn credits in game.

DS will not get rich off this idea also it's not gonna break any one either. you outfit a ship which probly cost u around 5 k creds but you cant pay 100 to support the idea of slowing down faction hoppers. maybe a couple times with no charge to give the benifit of doubt that the person is just tired of his name then start to charge. i'm not saying that every one that changes there name is a faction hopper but 9 x out of 10 they change it because they dont want ppl to know who they are.
btw thanks for the constructive criticism

We're not going to be charging for name changes (unless you're counting naming your ship).
