Minecraft player name changes.
Hello guys wertusk here with my first minecraft news
and for this news we are going to talk about the official
minecraft name changes.
Mojang has posted that minecraft name changes will
be implemented into the PC version of the game somewhere around February 4th
So i am here bringing you guys information about things related to minecraft
name changes.
#1
After the name change feature is released you can change your player
name by going to your mojang account. When the feature is available
there should be a button that says "Change Name". After you change
your name if you are having second thoughts you can change your name
again after waiting for 30 days wich is equal to 1 month in total. And don't
worry, changing your name will not cost you money.
#2
When a banned player tries to change his or her player name from
the time he or her got banned that player will always stay banned
no mater how many tries they used.
#3
When you change your name to a new one, other players coud take your name and
become imposters.You could still change your name back after 1 month if your name
is not taken yet. Even know these players could take your name they will
not have any kind of your own personal information.

Ok guys that is it for this minecraft news.
Stay updated to catch on new minecraft information
stay cool and i will see you next time.

"You could still change your name back after 1 month if your name is not taken yet."

Actually, according to the FAQ/Interview with Mojangster Dinnerbone of this matter, he stats that after you change your name your previous one won't be availible to anyone else for 37 days. That gives you a week of being able to change your name to your previous one. After that week is over, anyone can take your previous name.

wow... a Blog post in PopReel about Minecraft... Rare the last months...

and btw. the Name is "safe" after chaging it for 37 days,
so if you want it back, wait 30 days and you have 1 week
time to get the old name back...
after 37 days others can take it....
