Suggestion:

Anonymized Names in Tab While Queueing​

Detailed description:

Hey Pika Team,
I’d like to suggest adding a Randomized Naming System during queue and pre-game — similar to Hypixel.

Basically, instead of showing real usernames in tab or chat, it would show randomized unreadable names like:
Gü¿$êëW0Ñ-ë joined (1/16)!
ò2¼ERMK«ó[Äv↑ joined (2/16)!​

Reason(s):

Players often fold the queue when they spot sweats, cheaters, or known good players. This ruins matchmaking and delays games. Randomizing names would hide identities until the game starts, keeping queueing fair, smooth, and competitive.​

Example(s):

This feature already exists on Hypixel, and it works great. It prevents dodging, promotes fair play, and gives every player an equal start.

If it’s been suggested before, good — that means people actually want it.​

If you find cheaters, you can report them here.
Also, even if there are good players, you still never know what team they will be put into, and I don't see this as a reason to fold queues.

I like this suggestion because, when I used to play Bedwars, I often found myself leaving the queue after seeing good players.
When I got a rank myself, I noticed the same thing happening to me.

It can be annoying, but I haven’t seen it “ruin matchmaking,” as WhyMeopie suggests.
However, this is, in my opinion, a novel idea and should be given some thought by others.

Hi MrMeopie,
I like the suggestion, the concept sounds nice, but basing the suggestion mainly on “it’s on Hypixel” isn’t the best reason or example to add it. Pika Network has its own unique setup, and not any other servers feature necessarily fits or benefits this server.
so by mentioning where you get inspired from any idea breaks this line in suggestions guidelines :

you mentioning the fact that hypixel has it, is the reason it wont be added, also you didnt take into account this: what if players/party of players who are playing to winstreak, and a cheater queues them multiple times, they wont be able to dodge the cheater if they cant see tags, ruins the game for them as well doesnt it?
