What does this setting do?

The default of 1000 is an amount an established player raises easily and a new one does not. That is the intent: renaming should be possible but not casual.

Together with the cooldown this determines how stable identities are on your server. Set both low and you get players constantly appearing under new names — which undermines trade and trust.
