Hello,

the keys are tied to a user ID, not an username. They should continue working just fine, even after the rename. That being said, if there's something username-dependent in the bot's code, it might break for reasons unrelated to OAuth keys.

I've got a tool user DKY-Tools-Bot, that I want to rename to be DYKToolsBot. I've got two sets of OAuth keys:

When I rename the account, will those keys continue to work, or will I need to get new keys?
