The Teerace login system is quite nice. http://race.teesites.net/
However, not everyone would want to go through the trouble of account creation. Perhaps if it was an optional thing?

Wtf is wrong with you? You have to create an account in every fcking game, so everyone would do that. :D

Account system is a bad idea compared to the possible use of it. Luckily the current admins would rather not implement it.

In all the years Teeworlds has existed, accounts have never been required for DDRace. Regardless of other games, people would not respond well if this suddenly changed.

After all, lots of people don't care about points or the community; they just want to play the game as it is.

wow dinner are we talking about 80years old men who cant adapt to changes or what? :D I think an accountsystem is what ddrace is missing. Just look at osu, i only play it sometimes for fun, but it never bothered me having an account. If we dont try sth new, we will never know, right?

So then tell me the huge advantages of an account system if you really want it.

Advantages:
- You have your own Account with own and only Nickname
- Nobody can fake you -> Feeling of safety
- You cant finish for other people -> everybody has to show his own skills or develop new.

Disadvantages:
- No disadvantages -> Nobody would quit the game, cause they have to create an account
After all, lots of people don't care about points or the community; they just want to play the game as it is.
That's ridiculous. :D

Why do you think every game, website, whatever uses accounts?

yes good idea, i know my new beginner friends wouldnt spend time to create an account since he dosnt care jack for points etc.


disadvantages would be that you can't save & load to swap positions anymore, but besides that i think it would be a really good idea. if it was automatic tho!. the old version with /login was so lame imo.
would be nice when you opened your client and you login from that (with saved account & password), insted of having to type /login each server you join!.

Would people using other clients then still be able to change their name to yours and troll?

If you are not logged in you could have something like [Guest] in your clantag. Its not about details yet, its about the idea.
But if someone is willing to do a concept than that wouldnt hurt^^
