Hide Past Usernames On Profile

[orangewarrior78]

Welp, it looks like they’ve successfully implanted this today since I’ve noticed that accounts now have their past usernames hidden.

People can still use past usernames to look up specific players if they still remember what they were called before, but that’s about it.

EDIT:

A Roblox Admin confirmed this is an official change.

Previous Usernames No Longer Show On Profiles

Thanks for your feedback — this change is intentional, as we frequently update our safety solutions in an effort to keep users of all ages safe on our platform. As part of this, we want to let you know about changes going into effect today and over the next several weeks: Starting today, we are temporarily disabling visibility of previous usernames in user profiles. We will permanently disable visibility of previous usernames in Search, starting in Early December. What we’re changing …

In order to prevent users from being able to see violating usernames on the platform, we are temporarily removing the previous username functionality in user profiles.

@apenguinnn

In early December, we will re-enable the ability for users to see previous usernames in user profiles.

Unfortunately, previous usernames being removed from user profiles isn’t a permanent change. The only thing that will be permanent is no longer being able to see one’s previous usernames in Search. Previous usernames will be visible again on user profiles in early December.
