Giving nick to our players might seem like an amazing idea at first, but there are a few downsides to this. My main concern is reporting.
If we give people the ability to use nick, we’d need to pretty much redo our whole reporting system since we need to make sure that nicked players won’t abuse their nickname and can get reported. If were to do this now, these people basically won’t be able to get reported anymore which is quite a concern.
Additionally, I don’t think this is a thing that should be given to “normal” players. While I do understand that there might be some slight focussing, I definitely do not think it’s as much as staffers/youtubers. Players apparently like to kill people with a somewhat special colour name, though far from every player knows everyone on the leaderboard.
Many people have suggested it but the staff either don't see it or just ignore it. Other people just disagree for no apparent reason, I personally love this idea, and I'm not biased because i'm not even on the leaderboard.
I have replied to plenty of /nick suggestions. It’s kinda weird to just go ahead and say this while this isn’t true.
