    Within the first 10 minutes of namechanging, someone changed their name to "Collin Potato"
    Would that be attempted staff impersonation?

    I'm not sure if you're saying that someone actually did that or posing it as a hypothetical situation.

    The username "Collin Potato" is invalid as Minecraft usernames cannot contain spaces. No one else will ever be able to register the username "CollinPotato", as I will be holding on to that name.

    Oh, sorry for not making that clear.
    Someone changed their name to Collin Potato, most likely with a underscore like you said.
    Would that count as attempted Staff impersonation?
    And yes, someone actually changed their name to that.

    If you get banned as username "derp101" and you change it to "derp202" will you be unbanned?

    Someone already registered that account over a year ago. I banned it from Minetime for obvious reasons.

    Well Collin is the owner and someone obviously wanted to sort of impersonate him so why buy a new account as sort of the same owner of a server and not play on the server?

    No. Now I think staff members IP ban players. Due to name changes, it would be too easy to get back in minetime.
    What about this @AgentScreem ?

    I disagree it is most likely based on their UUID like the data is. :)
