I for one say NO to name changes. You should be stuck with the name you picked.
Greifers shouldn't be allowed to hide behind new aliases, Showing the last name on lodestone? yeah that'll help! /sarcasm.
Foul players who taint their name should be stuck with it! Plain and simple. I understand some people want their named changed because they picked something silly ( just looking at some in this thread is proof enough)
I've seen countless names that, well, aren't really names at all but words... I guess you should think harder and more long term the next time you pick one.
it's not SE's fault you couldn't come up with a better avatar name!
So long as SE doesn't screw it up, and blacklists, etc. are associated with the player ID and not the name, this shouldn't be a problem.
You people sure do love to dictate how other people play the game. Get your nose out of other folks' business. If they want to change their name - whatever the reason - then they should be able to.
Still waiting to hear something about this.
I'm gonna have to try making a character on another server with the same name then transferring.
If I am a tank that wants to pay 1000 dollars to get i110 bound gear, then I should be able too. I wouldn't compete in PvP, so there is no "advantage" because we aren't competing.
I unfortunately would really like to be able to change my name without forcing it when transfer is available. My name abbreviation is DF.. same as Duty Finder.
I get confused when people say they hate DF or DF is useless etc.
It's hurting my feelings.
Always think through your responses and appreciate other peoples opinions for what they are (opinions).
Still no word from Devs on this =/
Would love a response on this as well. My husband's char is female, he wants to use his Fantasia to go back to being a dude but his char has a super girly name.
If someone did something major to piss a lot of people off (unless they were a bunch of selfish people) need to live with their actions and learn from them.
unless compromised by RMT with no interaction, trade, and violation of TOS. then they should be restored an allowed a full change.
I'm seeing a lot of people commenting about fantasia bottles and no name change
Well yeah; that's primarily who wants name changes -- folks using a Fantasia. Who wants to switch from Male to Female and be stuck with Ralph? Or Female to Male and stuck with Cindy?
There's no reason this would have to affect social and blacklists, either. That's ridiculous.
