SG/VG rename

I've been trying to dig for any hint or hope of this...but i'm guessing it's down near the bottom of requests from the player base in general... still anyone have any inkling about this at all?

There is always hope.

Of course, my family motto is "While I breathe, I hope"

So, Hope is like...the breath of life...or some such...for my family.

That might account for my sparkling personality...

Now get off my lawn!

Biggest reason I would not expect to see such is a) griefing possibilities, b) who "owns" an SG?

The superleader 'owns' it, unconditionally.

If they feel like it, they can kick everyone out and delete the SG and no one can say jack about it. Can't get much more griefing than that so I don't see any reason not to have renaming.

Tech issue and philosophy issue. From War Witch's wording on it, it sounded like they still wanted to keep them separate, worked on that, and found out it was going to be a bigger cluster**** than would be worth it and backed down. But I am "reading between the lines" there a bit.


Dec out.

Welllll....I can see a lot of fights breaking out over renaming in the monster huge sgs that have been around since ..what..i3, i5? (i forget when sgs came into play)

What I have seen is that the original founder's of many sgs no longer play the game, which makes it difficult to determine whom actually would be able to purchase said rename. In many cases leadership has changed so much it would be a helluva web to untangle.

CURSE MY FRIGGIN LOGIC! I JUST SHOT MY OWN DAMN FOOT! moar tissue plz....

To compound things more....rarely do I see just one sg leader...usually it's a bevy of people who have taken on the responsibilities of a sg/vg....none of which registered that sg/vg in the first place.

okay, just shoot me, shoot me now.

BUUUUTTTT....if they limited sg/vg renames only to the original founders that would make me very happy.... and many many sg/vg leaders who aren't the original founders very angry.

*sigh* I guess the solution is to just start from scratch again.

That sucks major balls.

Plz don't give me a pic of that. lol.

I believe that is the title character from the 90s sitcom, Major Dad.

As noted above--the toon with the red star.
That toon sets permissions for everything, has the power to kick and delete and any other action that can be taken, some of which are already more dramatic than merely renaming the VG.
So if that's the biggest reason, it's not too big of one.

Or, General Morrison from The A-Team. (movie 2010)

Although that particular picture was from Major Dad.

Only way I've ever seen an SG renamed is for "copy write" reasons.

In which case, if you can make a convincing argument that your SG/VGs name violates the copy write agreement you'll get an SG name change similar to a character generic'd situation.
