Nicknames

Instead of having Administrators to change our nicknames, why don't we just have a thing in the website like color changing, but for nicknames?

1. Some player will change it to something inappropriate
2. We may have(if not added by nide) 2 players by the same name
Im sure there are many other things, only listing 2 for now.

If they do pick an inappropriate name, they will just get banned, what's the problem? And I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be hard to implement a system to check for duplicate names.

Admins need to approve each name, for it to have a blacklist of names it would be giant and players would have others names with a slight change (ex nickmcski1). I just don't see it being possible. Also since you can only change your name once why not just ask an admin. It seems weird to add that if you can only change your name a limited amount of times.
