So I was checking around the triggers to find one to change player names, well, to make them be "title name", for coolness factor, but... there isn't any change player name around? What the heck?!
Please tell me there's a way and I'm just sleepy and overlooking it.
You could only use a leaderbord or custom dialog and display a different name there. But people will still see the real name when moving the mouse over a unit, etc.

You made me cry :(.
Blizzard fail >_<.
Well, is there, at least, any way to show the names different in the chat?
Use variables with text-type and fill the player names in these. You can use the "Combine Text" (I dunno if this the correct name in english version (ger version here)) and in the first part you put the player name und in the second what you want to have as a suffix. The same works with prefix and everything else.
Now you only need to change player name functions to these text-variables and it should work.

Yeah, I wanted to add some "nice" touch to players when they spoke, like putting "Commander " before their name. I'll try to look into your suggestion, Zanryu, although I didn't understand it too well xDDD.
If you could explain a bit the how-to it would be great, right not I have no idea where I have to go to modify that :S.
Edit: Ah, shit, only trigger related messages... I could try removing the current dialog box for a new trigger-one, but it's too complicated for the simple stuff I want to do.

It is possible if you work around.

Won't fix the mouse-over text for units
For this it's enough. (Of course only trigger-relayed text-massages)

There is trigger to remove that.
