I never said that mod sucks or never wanted to insult them, the extreme + mod is awesome, yes.
But it doesnt makes sense to save just the same.
Like: I sometimes run as Unknown Soldier through the servers, sometimes as Earliboy.
So i would always have a different name. Specialy like the community is right now, people changing theyre names like underwear.
Specialy that checking name script would be more usefull for an account system to check the login name.
A login system (name / pw) would be better cause then it doesnt matters which name youre using.

Specialy, if you use just name, you would be able to steal the stats of other players by just renaming to them.
