    I am not sure if this has been suggested before or if it is possible, but I thought it might be a good idea to have the ability to, but not be required to, put what your in-game username is on the forums. I was thinking like maybe add a section under personal details or something where it can display your IGN on the actual server, not what your username is on the forums, and anyone can view it. I am not sure if I am making much sense, so here is an example of what I mean.

    Person1 has a username of 12345 on the forums, but in-game on the actual skyblock server, their IGN is abcde. With what I am suggesting, there would be a section where on the forums, they could put under their personal details, that their IGN is abcde, and anyone can view it. Like maybe under their forums username, it could say like (IGN:abcde). I just thought that this might be a cool addition to the forums, and also could potentially help with trades or something like because you wouldn't have to spend extra time finding out eachother's usernames for a trade if you live in different time zones and it takes multiple hours for responses because of that issue. I don't know though if this is a good idea or not, or even if it has been suggested before. I have attached an example that I made of what it might look like below.

    This image is not part of the suggestion necessarily, it is just an example of what it might look like, because I know that it is just a quick photoshop that isn't super high quality or anything. The main suggestions is just the basic idea. If this idea becomes implemented, I do not care in which way it is implemented. I would assume it would be whichever method is most popular.

    Support, but I'd prefer something like Mineverse. Like here: ~Agent~ | Mineverse Forums, you click "Information" and it says their ign.

    (you're welcome Agent. <#)

    That would be a good idea. This is just like a general idea with being able to view other people's IGN, so I have no objection to your suggested change to the method of viewing it. I honestly don't really care how specifically it is implemented.

    the way you show it is pretty ugly but ive seen it implemented on xenforo forums before in a more aesthetically pleasing way. support.

    It would be easy for us to see who the players are that come on the forums. Though the way you present it I don't really like tbh. xP

    As I said below the image, it is the idea itself that is the main suggestion. It literally took me like 2 minutes to photoshop that in xD, and I didn't expect it to be the perfect way to implement it.

    So, basically copying Mineverse.
    Yes. Lets make this as toxic as Mineverse.

    Support. This would be very useful for player's to find out another member's in game name, so they would be able to contact that player easier.

    I'd prefer to be in the information tab imo.

    Support because some people impersonate one/or more of the top voters to get the coupon instead the real top voters
