Is this new? Why has it been added? What does it do??

Hello hello
Yes, this was done because namechanging on the mobile site was a right faff - and as more and more of you are using the mobile site, we wanted to improve your user experience
Posters are allowed to namechange on Mumsnet - mid-thread if they like; this has always been the case. What's not allowed is using the namechange facility to mislead - that is, to back yourself up as though you were two completely separate posters, or 'talk' to yourself (unless it's obviously a joke), etc.
Without giving too much away, we definitely have Ways of Knowing that posters are namechanging on threads. So if you suspect someone is namechanging to mislead, please report the thread to us and we'll get on it.
As to the just-for-one-post thing - we'll come back to you on that one
