The main reason I do not like this proposal is due to this portion of the proposal:

"updating a handle that is out-of-date or unrepresentative of the member."

I think that whatever username has been selected by a member at signup is how they have been known on FlyerTalk and that a member shouldn't be allowed to change handles just because they've changed positions in life.

For example, if I signed on as "CollegeProfessor" and then switched professions and became a bartender, that I should be allowed to change to "Bartender". Even though the CollegeProfessor handle that I originally signed on with may not have anything to do my current life, that's how I've been become to be known as on FlyerTalk.

If someone really wants it badly enough to change their handles, IMHO, they can petition the Community Director on their own - I don't think that part of the rule needs to be (or should be) formalized.

If that part of the proposal were removed, I'd be happy to vote for it - but that's enough of a point, IMHO, to not vote for it.
