Suggestion Name:
Permission for Game Moderators to Hide Their In-Game Username
Suggestion Description:
Currently, Game Moderators’ names are hidden in most places on the website. However, their in-game usernames are still visible to nearby players and when they send messages in the in-game chat.
Because of this, punished players can easily guess which moderator took action.
This suggestion proposes introducing a permission that allows Game Moderators to hide or anonymize their in-game usernames in-game.
Any example images:
No.
Why it should be added:
Even though moderator names are hidden in most areas of the website, players can still identify moderators by seeing their usernames nearby or in the in-game chat.
This makes it easier for punished players to estimate who handled their case.
As a result, moderators may be contacted or harassed through Discord or other platforms regarding their punishments. (not sure)
Adding a permission to hide in-game usernames would help prevent targeted harassment, protect moderator privacy, and allow moderators to perform their duties in a safer and more comfortable environment.
Anonymous Moderator ID System (Additional Feature):
When a Game Moderator enables anonymous mode, their real in-game username will be hidden.
Instead, players will see a temporary and anonymized identifier such as:
Game Moderator #A17
This anonymous ID will be visible both in proximity and in-game chat messages.
The ID will be automatically logged and internally linked to the real moderator account.
