New TDoM Naming System?

I was going to make this a poll, but I want some more open feed-back. What do you guys think of a new TDoM naming system? Personally, I love being able to identify myself as a member of this clan immediately, but I know a lot of people hate having to change their name, and hate even more that some people get the exclusive privilege not to. So, the current idea is to keep whatever names members have had before (assuming they are respectable), but give them the option to change their name to a tag (such as TDoM_NAME or NAME(TDoM)).

All members will be included in the TDoM database accessible via my bot (I may include the database on others' bots as well since I'm not on all of the time). If anyone wishes to check the viability of you being a TDoM member they may whisper the bot saying something like "-member (name)" and the bot will return the username, rank, access, and title of the member. I have already set up a database that can be read but now I must work on writing and replacing members. It shouldn't take long.

Tell me what you think.

Great idea, except I do not see the point of being able to whisper your bot and use the command "-name" if people will have a TDoM tag.

Notice the italics on option.

I'd say keep the TDoM in the name.

That goes without say. It's the ranks and such that confuse/piss people off.

I dont see the italics in the original post

Sorry missed that. Well, we live in a Democracy....everybody fight for what you want!

I agree with cip LOL just make them change there name to TDoM- _(name) its just a force of goodness

I don't want to die, I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all!

Its ok cip you will die someday lol... i just want it to stay TDoM-BLANK_BLANK (ex. TDoM-P_Avatar)

Ciph, no quoting Bohemian Rhapsody...


I like the current system but people are fags, so stick with TDoM_ (it allows the most letters afterwards)

I could put TDoM_KingGreg then

If you remove the P, G, etc then you have room for other things. Then we could use the bot to identify your clan ranking.

Agreed.

The main point was whether or not we should do it at all, I had already figured we'd get rid of the ranks. I think a lot of people would have issues with me letting in people like Lily without them having to change their name, and we certainly know Lily won't change her name...damn non-conformists.

Well I think the TDoM is necessary in order to start a good reputation.

I dont really want to change my name cause people would kick me outa games for being in TDoM

That has never happened to me.

Happened to me.

All that's ever happened to me is:

"TDoM? Are you so and so?"
"No, TDoM is our clan."
"OH! That mazing clan for pros!"

That happened just a few weeks ago, and wasn't the first time it happened...

I have never been kicked out of a game for being in TDoM, I use to get kicked a lot Before TDoM

I've never been kicked, but I've heard a lot of complaints about others being kicked. Most of the time I just get people having geekasms and accusing me of being a bot. Not that I have a big ego >.>

I've never been kicked, but I have kicked TDoM members from my game .

Well, So have I Who hasn't?
Some TDoM's just suck entirely and annoy the hell outta me, But whatca gonna do?
It's the clan, not the people.

(Hasn't been kicked either)
