I'd think it would be a good idea if platinum donors and above could do /d (name here)
Just so its a little less obvious its a disguised person

If it is an inappropriate name, the user should be reported

I have this weird feeling that it would be abused to hell.

Not only would it be abused with explicit names, you would also see a lot of people disguising as well known players, or youtubers. A bunch of fake Huahwi's would be running around, and for the staff members, it would be quite a task to keep track of everything.

Or pick from a selection of names so it doesn't get abused? E.g you get 5 options for disguise names, so you don't have to spam /d, then /undisguise.
Seems like a more reasonable option.

I see where you're coming from, but I don't think it will happen. If people could choose their own disguise names, inappropriate names would run around like crazy. Even with filters, there will be people that will get past them.

if there's only 5 options, it would, be easier to spot disguises...

Maybe it would randomize 5 options for you to choose from.
I think this would be one of the safest options.
Having the freedom to customize your name to anything you wanted would be much too powerful and too risky, because of the amount with which it would be abused.
