Search Username History

[Jerry]

Don't know if there's an option I'm missing while searching, but I think it would be nice to be able to search username history as well. It would be helpful to find people who try running from their past by changing their name and easier to find people who you don't keep up with regularly.

If you're going to disagree, why

I fully agree. The number of times ive tried finding a user's old name is crazy. I see a new person in chatbox with like 50 rep and im wondering who th is that lol

Don't you just click on their profile and check Username History?

But if you don't know someone's current name there's no way to find them.

I agree that this would be good functionality, and I often do want to find out what someones new name is after they change it, so I go to the admin panel.

I don't know how you should be able to search for old usernames, but we can cross that bridge when it's time for development.

Thanks, I'll move this to pending.
