OWNED Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 so for some reason, within the server I am (and other people) are unable to change our name the "Chef" I've attempted to changes and even contacted an admin about it, but nobody can figure out why Former E11 1LT/Head Ranger, Former Event Team/Staff Member| GENSEC SGT Foundation Chef <- me when the quiet guy in D-block begins to reach into his pocket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 (edited) This is most likely because another player on the server set their name to "Chef" which put it in the database. Two players cannot have the same RPname at once without use of certain commands, which makes the name "Chef" unavailable to you. This is not a bug.

I think hes saying that he wants the name and if the person is not active can't you guys force name?

It doesn't matter if anyone else named "Chef" is on the server. It is in the database that another player is named Chef, and so it won't allow him to change his name to Chef unless SMT frees up the name in the database. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rookieblue Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Not a Bug After looking into this, we have decided that this is an intended feature of the game and NOT a bug. If you think this should be changed in the future feel free to make a post in the suggestions section of the forums for that server.
