basicly, all essential features have been fixed so that you can play on the server like before, thats all we intend to do for the near future. To my knowledge we dont intend to change names to your new minecraft.net name since it can break a lot of things still (website, worldguard, mcmmo, stats, ect.)

Didn't they break originally when name changes were introduced on Minecraft? Just saying, you could maybe allow it for a day or two every few months, and just fix it after. You'll only have to fix it around 6 times in an entire year. I mean, it would be nice to have our Minecraft names on everything because even though our names are changed on Craftland through donation, it still says our original name in parties, in shopchests, etc.

It's not that we had to fix everyone's names individually. I'm pretty sure the name you sign up with is then the name that is stored and used for everythin. Those that joined with a changes name before had their names reverted to the stored craftland one. I'm sure I read somewhere that nide said it would take a few months of solid coding to switch to uuid's, something that we don't have, and the time that would be better spend adding more features and fun stuff, instead of A name you can ask administrator to change anyway.

Good point, thanks Pig.
