    Has this been proven to work? Sounds like a bit of a risk. Not to mention, I don't think anyone should go to these lengths to get rid of someone, though it is a possible solution if it actually works.

    Anywho OP, most you can do is hope he eventually gets the idea and finds someone else to bother if the GM does nothing about it. I will admit I'd be super upset if this happened to me.

    Does this work? I've heard another way that involves creating a new character with the same name on another server, transferring your old character to that server (resulting in a forced name change), and then transferring the old character back to the original server.

    Yeah, it works just like it did in FFXI. The other option would be for the OP to transfer servers, make the same character name on their original server and then transfer back which would also force a name change but it'd also cost $36.
