Many users make an account name that they soon regret and luckily, as we know, we are able to change is for 1000RS. This is all good and well but what about if people want to change their usernames so people do not know that they are the same person. You could just block them, yes, but what if they haven't done anything wrong and you don't particularly want to stop seeing their feed and what games they play. I think that on the account settings they should add a button which allows users to allow only who they want to see their previous usernames. Similar to choosing who you allow to chat with you or follow you(Friends, Followers or Nobody etc) It seems to me like a sensible action to execute for the following reasons:
-some users may be embarrassed by past usernames and will feel uncomfortable knowing the public can view them
-you may not want other users to know you are the same person and it's almost like a fresh start is available
-previous usernames may have meant something bad that you don't want people to see
-if just gives users that extra stretch of privacy too
I'm sure there are many other reasons why people may want to hide their usernames. This is just what I thought of.
