Why isn't the !alias command available for the public? Can you mention one well-thought for not making it available?

The !alias command:
- makes it easier to check who the retard who is constantly following you truly is
- makes it more rewarding to post ban requests. This is due to the fact that most hackers just dodge, yet they seldomly get a new ip all the time. This way you can track down hackers more effectively.

It makes no sense if the reason to make it unavailable to the masses is "We don't want our smurfing members to bust each other"

I recommended that they replace name with simply a (number), this way you would clearly recognize suspicious players with no aliases (0) as most likely ban dodgers/hackers, also could help identify pesky smurfs (43).

my guess is the mods just want to be able to hide their identities in game but at the same time know who everyone else is, which is their privilege for hard work, but its pretty damn sucky for the rest of us who simply want to avoid smurf suffocation or hackers.

If that was the case, I would have something like 1500000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 as a name. Lol

for what purpose? most mods don't use smurfs. biggest smurfer BurritoCarcass resigned, all smurfs with in game access was removed (not only his). until you guys come up with a better suggestions, i'll always will archive threads about this subject.
