Impersonation is going to be a HUGE problem here.

Use the #Flood tag right now. You will see two threads by A 3 Legged Goat, begging for followers. When I saw these parody threads, I assumed they were by the same horned crippled beast that we all know and love. They probably are. However, after a few seconds of thought, I wondered if they WERENT by Goat at all. I realized that with the new name change, anyone can impersonate another user! I checked to see if I could pretend to be famous users by changing my name, and sure enough, it only took a few presses of the keys before I became Duardo. As you can see, my name is Shoop again, like before. Still, this problem needs to be fixed. I recommend that each member's display name MUST be unique as well, or even better; their unique ID is their display name.
