    Hmm... name squatting. Underhanded, disgraceful, selfish. Yes. Rule-breaking, not hardly unless you're scamming.

    Name squatting is pretty old hat. The fact it's still a thing is what amazes me, but people really love to have their vanity names. It's why the '17 Clouds' is a very real, if funny, occurrence.

    Also not to mention that in the ToS they say not to use any other trademarked names. It would be hilarious if someone bought this, the person selling it reported them for having a trademark named, they lost it, the seller pick it up again and re-sell it.

    So, I am going to go with it is probably illegal since the only 'desired' names would likely be trademarked.

    You also make a huge assumption that the name becomes available on the server right away when the character is deleted.

    With the current ability to have both first and second names, this really shouldn't be an issue. Unless a person wants a very specific name that is extremely popular like.. "Cloud Strife" or something, which I believe all servers probably already have... this makes little sense. And anyone wanting Cloud, Sephiroth or other popular Final Fantasy names really needs some originality...
