Removal of Surnames

[sasukeuchiha]

Ah right!

Pro-tip

To send a tell to a player who's in front of you, target the player and type
/tell <t> [message]

To send a tell to a player who did a /tell to you (For example, "Dramaturgicus Extraordinaris"), type

/tell drama

Then type the TAB key to start the Auto-translation, and select his name. You'll have this result:

/tell Dramaturgicus Extraordinaris

To start a tell to a player who has been already /tell'd, just press CTRL+T.
If you've /tell'd more than 1 player, you can keep pressing CTRL+T to scroll the players you've /tell'd.

Hope this can help!

Nope it does not help at all i already new that and i still find sending a tell to be a chore that the main reson id rather see surnames removed. Seeing as some people liek them if sendning a tell would be made easier then i would not mind as much. Surnames should still be made optional for the people who realy do not want them tho leave it up to the player to have it or not i still do not beleave it should be forced to make a player have a surname is they do not want one.

Come on! With TAB you can't be wrong, even if you would!

._. What's so hard about /tell to people? .... .

amazing, this pathetic thread still lives... There is hope for this game, but no hope for human race's stupidity... :P

I like surnames, but I need a possibility to change it like we do when get married. My surname is "Finch" but I found that there are too many finches on my server!)

Now you're just being obtuse.

There is a one character difference between

/tell sasukeuchiha
and
/tell sasuke uchia

Honestly, get over it.

That's the thing though, without surnames, you'll have people with Rhianu4352 and people trying to spell it different ways. The point of surnames is to where you can have the same first name with spelling. I get the 'sounds better without' but I'm sure there is a name that would sound good... or you just picked a bad first name

Ahh, so you're arguing that we need surnames so people don't need to be creative. Ok cool. Also, numbers aren't allowed in most popular mmos

Keep the surnames.

[Kallera]

Surnames should be kept, if you can type a sentence, you can type a name. If its the complexity of a name, hell, removing a surname won't solve that. At least there's some sembalance of lore you can make. Look at all the miqote/mithra with "amariyo" in their name! Is it really so horrifying to have the space bar to contend with? Look at how many times I used it here!

Ctrl-R to respond to a immediate /tell sent to you.

Hitting 'Enter' or 'Confirm' twice on a gamepad should pull up the tell command with the person's name already entered as it did in FFXI, and it wouldn't be such a horror story to send tells to running players.
