Biography no longer shows past names or current names. Possibly deleted from the addition of the commentary linked picture?

The problem with past names is that there is no logging mechanism present. Which means that the only way to catch them is to get them through Global Events fixed messages. However, this method will not ensure we will catch them all.

We are currently working on the global events infrastructure. Right now we have not paid attention to the past names used but rather to the account.

There can be controversy here though as some people choose to hide their biographies for this reason. Perhaps the best case scenario would be to record the names per event and then let players choose whether they want to display them or not.

This can happen later though as the value of such an implementation cannot justify the time needed. Till that time global events past infrastructure will be maintained in the background although we will server through the newer version.

I know it sounds a bit complicated. That's the truth though. Think of the different elements tracked down in every single event. Do we need to track down the different name in a scripted way? Should this be supported? Can the users affect what gets displayed?

Like I said, all these are nice but they need to wait. What interests us at this moment is to provide comment utility. The rest can be added later.
