    About Name Priority

    When the time comes and our data is thrown onto the 2.0 servers (and one can only assume beta rollover) will name conflicts be handled the same way they were before during the server merges?

    My most educated guess would be that if you have already made a character in 1.0 you have priority on its name in 2.0 since it's already stored as a character under that name on the server even before 2.0 characters are made, though we are getting the option to change it if we wish (they're putting the finer touches on that).

    Act in such a way that you treat humanity, whether in your own person or in the person of another, always at the same time as an end and never simply as a means

    Well (at least I'm hoping) I don't think they are letting anyone keep beta characters. I know it was probably tossed out there but I dont see it happening. So I think names will be like how they usually are, whoever had it longest gets to keep it.

    But with the whole 2 name thing its unlikely you'll have to fight someone for your name unless its a name taken from elsewhere, lol

    I'm not worried about naming since this game has a first and last name system.

    Yeah. Chances are, unless you're just not that original, you'll be able to keep your specific crazy fantasy name.
