    They can not ip ban or check your ip, because there ddos protection makes everyone have the same ip.

    Not true as of a month ago.

    Bans are the only thing that'll stick if you change your username.

    That's a no brainer x''D but I thought the ddos protection did make everyone have the same ip.

    They can just ip ban you, but the problem is I think thay will ban you on forums as well.

    I will be starting a new business endeavor as of the 1.8 update.
    I will give you a code via /pm to confirm your identity after the name-change, you /pay me your earnings, then you can go change your name, /pm me the code I gave you, and I will return your meebles to you, minus a 10% transfer fee. Safe, quick, simple.

    I thought they were changing things so that this wouldn't be an issue on servers if you were to change your name?

    Unless somehow IPs were used or something more advanced, I'm sure the ban list only has usernames in it.

    They are called UUID's and they are like a unchangeable secret name that will be used for bans. It can be used for donations easily I believe since it is open info, just up to onis to transfer the data or not... :/
