kazenioware Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 New players find it diffcult to find a nick that isn't already taken by some player who has MR0 and never played. Same goes for renaming yourself or a clan. Maybe you should give accounts or at least the names a statute of limitations. When, if they decide to come back to this game after years of not playing, they should be able to do so, but have to pick a new alias. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weidro Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 hi kaze long time no see ^.^ some players create alt accs to reserve names although send a support ticket and maybe DE will allow you to pick the name for example if the account is banned i can see that they allow it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xaero Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 They don't expire automatically but support can handle this issue. Just make sure the profile with the desired nickname was inactive, contact support and ask them to delete it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DopingMD Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Because DE needs them! :D so that they could wave with their statistics at every "Tenno Con" I also tried once and asked support for an account that wasn't active for over a year! a MR2 guy (now inactive for over 2 years!) and all I got was a negative response! no matter how inactive the member is,you can not take his name!

You can, actually. The account has to be inactive for over 12 months, not be a founder account, not be a CB account, and never have made a plat purchase. I have plenty of friends who have already gone through this process and are now using names that were taken by name snipers. Though most that were taken were from MR0 with next to no playtime, so they might be going on MR progress / playtime too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time I asked support to allow me to change my alias to a used one, they said it needed to be inactive for at least 2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celthric317 Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 People should just stop taking names like: DarkLord123, Darthvader551, Captain Deadpool. etc. etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
