[Pending] Missing information regarding name changes

This suggestion is pretty simple.

Right now a user with no donor status can not see the requirements/info about name changes. This is because the thread with this information is in the donor lounge, which requires a donator status of at least 5$.

When a user checks the perks of $5 USD Donor in the User Center, they see the following information at Minor Name Change.

They can however not access the lounge before they donated. This leads to people donating 5$ to get their name changes, without knowing what they can and can not change it to. Even if they would donate 200$, that does not mean they can have a major name change right away.

I propose to have this information on a different place as well. This could be the user center.

Regardless of a name change, you must donate a minimum of $5. Once donated you are able to see this thread https://www.sythe.org/threads/username-change-request-thread/ that clearly identifies the criteria for how much needed to donate for a specific name change.

I do agree though, that there should be guidelines, so people do not just donate thinking they can get any name change they want.

I think copying that thread to Sythe.org Support (maybe in place of or combining with Wortel's sticky) makes sense

I agree, that seems to be the most common place where people ask these questions.
Adding it to that sticky makes a lot of sense as well.

@Zora I'm dumb, this info is already in the sticky here: How to change your name? (click spoiler)

You're right, missed this as well.
I think it would still be good to add it to the User Center:

If possible, add a hyperlink referring to the sticky.

 

I was already planning on updating the stickies in the help section to better display the name change requirements.

Though I have a bunch of other stuff to do first. I'll move this to pending for now.
