Static Deck Slugs?

TappedOut forum

Would it be possible to have static deck slugs? I only ask as every now and then I like to change the name of my decks to attract more people to look at them, this unfortunately means that any comments I have made previously that include links to my decks break as the slugs change with the new name.

I'm no expert on the way this system would work, but I think static slugs would probably have to involve timestamp-based number sequences, which means that you would need to copy and paste the slug or memorize a number instead of a name. It's perhaps more functional in the long run given name changes, but it's a little more irritating to write out while posting.

I suppose it could be something like username_1, username_2, etc to make it slightly easier to remember. I do see the problem with having to copy and paste during posting though if it had to be something along the lines of a time stamp or a guid.

it could just not recreate them after the first time.

The "problem" is that you then have slugs that don't match the new deck titles. You'd have to double-check the slug or remember the old name if you wanted to type it by hand.

The decks could be at tappedout.net/user/XXXXX/deckX. Then the slug would be [ [user/deck#] ]
