Prexades Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 (edited) Since millions of people gave Warframe a try at least, a lot of names are already taken and I dislike just adding numbers to a name. Maybe characters that haven't played since first open beta could be re-added to the pool of available names. Or as a suggestion for a sensible system: Names of characters at MR3 or below are getting freed up after 6 month of inactivity. Above MR3 each level of MR adding another month of name protection. I.Ex a legendary 4 character name is protected for 6 month + 34 for mastery, 40 month in total. Edited May 16 by Prexades Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltage Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 (edited) Names can be grabbed via support as long as they've been offline for a sufficient time and made no purchases on the account. That's how I got this IGN. Edited May 16 by Voltage 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numerounius Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 I've seen people say that you can ask support to free up a certain name for you. Don't know if it works since I haven't tried it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hello Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 I'm also someone that asked support to release a name that seemed inactive and support confirmed it was. They took the plat from my account and changed the name for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zahnrad Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 Well, I wasn't aware this was something you could do. I've thought about it but never felt brave enough to ask Support about. Now that I know you can indeed do it, I think I'll be getting my IGN changed soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prexades Posted May 17 Author Share Posted May 17 I wrote a ticket and I don't think the CS representative even understood my request. " Hello Prexades, This is an automated email, intended to gather all the necessary information we need to process your request. Thank you for contacting us.

I don't think I will bother contacting them again as the risk this 'person' will misinterpret my request for a name change as account deletion. https://i.imgur.com/iWKad22.jpeg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
