I could see where handle changes could be used to "game" the system in CC or OMNI, unless everyone is made aware that the poster changed their handle. For example, if handle changes are granted without due consideration, and without something visible to everyone that can't just be hidden/deleted, someone could post a trade in CC, not follow through with their part, and request a handle change to avoid others hearing about their failure to complete the trade. In OMNI, one could contribute the minimum to access OMNI, then act very much like a "troll," to the point that most OMNI posters know to ignore them. They then could request a handle change, and if there isn't due consideration, and without something visible to everyone that can't just be hidden/deleted, they could simply antagonize people again, without regular OMNI posters knowing it was the same person.

A general question about handle changes... If a poster is on someone's ignore list, and that poster requests, and is granted a handle change, does the person who opted to ignore them have to add the new handle to their ignore list?
