Add a "previous usernames" section to the profile page.

Question

Ok, as you may know (or not) I haven't been on in FOREVER! I come to find the site has completely changed, and I have no idea whether someone is a newbie or if they actually changed their name. In fact, moments ago, I saw the name "Mewderator" and couldn't figure out if it was Mew or some older user with a similar name. Thanks for reading!

Welcome back :)
Yeah this has been suggested before, it was sorta rejected each time :3

^^ They say it's for privacy reasons. But really, I think it's a decent suggestion. Screw privacy.

I've answered similar questions before. It's up to users to put their previous names in their profiles, e.g. in the About Me section.
