While i'm fully aware this may not be possible, i know i'm not alone when i say, some of us made some bad decisions starting the game, took a few wrong turns, smoked the wrong bong, didnt know what we were doing, ect. By the time we realized we didnt like our name or race, we've already progressed so far into the game, its really just not worth starting the game over again just to grow a tail or to change your character name. Now i think being given the ability to change your character name should be easy enough since its been implemented during world transfers and world mergers. Hell, if any of you mods are reading this, tell square enix to give us the ability to change our character names (perhaps with a certain max # of times we can do so per character to avoid abuse of the feature) from the pol client (just like world transfer) and if they want to make a quick few bucks on the idea, they can charge like 5 bucks for each time you want to do so. I think being given the ability to change your race and character model should follow a very similar formula. Select the option from the pol client, pay the fee (i'd imagine 5~10 dollars) and make sure you post a warning with something to the effect of Please make sure this character isn't wearing any race specific armor when changing his or her race, having so would result in the loss of said item. (this would be much like when we did world transfer we'd loose anything in our delivery boxes. I don't know about you all but i'd LOVE to be able to change my character name, so very dearly.
