Presentation name

Umm what was the idea behind this?
It seems more annoying than useful. Most players just change it immediately prior to kinning someone depending on the situation, so in-game names bear zero meaning now. Not that they were very useful beforehand due to dozens of accounts/chars everyone runs, but it seems much worse now.

I thought this had been a feature for years?

You can present yourself as whomever to others. I find this mildly useful.

When you don't trust someone you can lie about who you are and still talk to him, pretty useful I'd say.
