    Mojang currently lets you change your name:

    However, neither Vincent or Alice are ready for it, so you will be unwhitelisted. Therefore, if you change your name, you will have to contact me so we can get it figured out.

    Well, it helps for poeple who chose their name ages ago and are named like "123BitchSlapper". But it's also bad, when perma banned poeple apply again with another name (unless there is a way to find out).

    @ben: nice one

    Well due to this problem, you'll be unwhitelisted anyway.

    If you post your IGN's here, I might whitelist you. My name gets saved as your whitelister, so don't grief or misbehave :p
