Inactive Character Wipe

[Rogean]

There will be an inactive character wipe at 9 PM Eastern Time, Friday, October 18th.

This will have an impact on the Green server, since as we previously announced, you will not be able to create a character on Green with the same name as a character on Blue unless you are logged into the account that owns the name on Blue. Therefor, if a name you would like to use is deleted by the inactive character wipe, you will need to be ready to reserve it on the blue server so that you will have it available to use on Green.

Characters will be deleted if they meet both of the following conditions:
They are under Level 10 and have not logged into since January 1st, 2019
They are under level 5 and have not logged in since January 1st, 2018.
OR They are Level 1 and have not logged in since January 1st, 2019.

Additional Notes:
Any character that is deleted by this can be requested to be restored via the Petition forum.
There will be no downtime on the Blue server to perform this.
We will still be allowing early character creation on the Green server prior to the official launch.
The blue-green name sharing functionality is not currently implemented on Green Beta at this time.

Woot!!!!

Noice :)

[Crashking]

So question -- Have to meet both conditions or just 1 of the 2?? I understand the goal of house cleaning for names.

Curious if we could get some pre-details for GREEN, about what is to happen if we reuse the same name when server is to merge back to blue. Will items be stuck (no trade) on the green toon, presume there might be a bit of a name change necessary and what will happen if all 8 slots are already filled on account?

That’s a lot of dead mules.

Confused about this. I thought early character creation on Green boiled down to "create your character on Blue to book the name".

Will the blue/green name sharing be implemented on Green Live ?

[Gustoo]

You create it on blue after wipe. make it on green when early creation is allowed..i guess

[Canelek]

Clear as the azure sky of deepest summer. Thanks R!

Thank You

[Halox]

Finally. Long overdue.

[Shrubwise]

What about expanding the character wipe criteria to characters on permanently banned accounts?

Create the character now, on Blue, and then use that same account once Green opens up to create the character, again. You have it correct.

They still haven't said what will happen at the end of Green when it is rolled into Blue, regarding 1) duplicate named characters, 2) accounts that have more than 8 characters on Blue/Green combined, etc. But that is a long ways off.

[ricquire]

What about expanding the character wipe criteria to characters on permanently banned accounts?

This is a good point - maybe some special deletion criteria for banned names.

Also @Rogean can/should this extend to RED?

[BlackBellamy]

Yeah that's not going to happen IMO. Banned names were banned for a reason, we don't need bad rep rmt scam ninja looter names coming back.

Banned names were banned because the people behind them acted badly.

Love all these announcements, deletion of some banned toons under certain circumstances sounds lgood too. personally I think the level cap should be raised to 20 or 25 but im sure level 10 and below will remove a good bit of bloat. rock on p99, see you soon

[Muggens]

Good news!

[uygi]

Very curious what will happen when green/blue merge; should we be concerned about this? If I have all 8 slots filled on Blue, what happens when they merge? If toons have same name, will there be some merge functionality among the toons themselves (if I like my Blue toon more but earned a title on green, is that something staff wants to support or whatever)? A simple “don’t worry about it” would satisfy me, I trust Rogean and Nilbog :D

[Jimjam]

I'm struggling to remember the log in details of all my accounts caddying 8x fungi tunics on level 1s :'(.

Based on reports, they have a way to add an extra 8 characters to an existing account. However, just like your current 8 characters, they'll be sorted alphabetically, and you'll only be able to see the first eight. So, once your Green characters merge over, you could potentially have 16 characters on your account, and you'd potentially need to delete up to 8 of them to access the other 8.

But also, this is quite literally 4+ years off, and regardless of anything the staff has said they might decide to do something entirely different by then.

Yeah, so who wants the name Platlord

oof yikes

many of these bad names have a reputation behind why they were banned. I think banned names should stay banned for staff and player sanity.

On live if you had too many characters you could scroll through the excess with the up and down keys.

Oh interesting. I didn't know that could even happen on live, but I guess once they started merging servers it had to come up ...

[Zekayy]

well as far as I know people that have been banned can create another account and still play

[Daloon]

This is very sad for people taking a hiatus from the game. Many of us dont even have the current server files to log in our chars. Please rethink.

I've been in this camp. But - if you are aware that its upcoming and have been around since 2010, and were a member of at least one prominent guild, it's likely someone you know can help you out here. It sucks for those who are NOT aware, but the focus now might should be on people who have a part in the future of the project. If you were one of those people holding multiple high plat items on mules and have stopped paying attention.. well, shit :p

[DMN]

I don't know. Feels pretty weird. just to free up some names we are gonna risk deleting someone's hard work? Hrmmm. plenty of people come and go over the years, completely detached from anything related to P99/EQ for months to years but come back again eventually. I suppose it might be too time consuming for you guys to code in some kind of name changing thing, where the character is simply tagged with something like xxx at the end of their name if they would otherwise be wiped?

[Deathrydar]

Any character that is deleted by this can be requested to be restored via the Petition forum.

[DMN]

Ya I suppose but curious how that will work out if they do merge green with blue.

[Jimjam]

I actually logged in a couple other people's characters for this reason.

Don't forget to strip/delete them.

That way you can blame big pappa 'gean if they come back to missing toons.

You did read the part about the characters being under level 10, right?
It's not only that the characters have been inactive since the first of the year; it's also that they are sub level 10. They need to meet both requirements.

EC mules tend to be under level 10. So if I was a very active player a year and half ago and I'm taking a break, when I log in a month from now I'm going to be very surprised. However, all I have to do is petition for those guys and I'm good.

That is correct.

The point I was making is that all the characters who will potentially be erased are under level 10. I know it is relative, but "all their hard work erased" seems a bit dramatic for a character under level 10.

Well, IF someone else picks your EC mule's name, while he's deleted, you could lose it. But personally I won't lose any sleep if someone's mule, that they haven't even played in 3/4 of a year, has to be renamed :)

[Sarkhan]

I see a lot of old inactive mules being wiped but in the end they will bring them back through petitions so not truly lost, just more of an inconvenience.

I wonder what kind of cool names will be freed up, hopefully people don't just make account after account of names they then attempt to sell.

[loramin]

hopefully people don't just make account after account of names they then attempt to sell.

Heh, well if they do they'll likely get caught, and then the names will go into the banned pile to be freed up in another future wipe ... maybe ten years from now ;)

Honestly I think the staff should auto-free up banned names, but only after a certain period of time. You don't want a situation where Bob defrauds Fred, then Fred sees Bob a couple months later and starts cussing him out ... but really Bob isn't Bob, he's Ted, who just took the name Bob (after the original Bob got banned for defrauding).

But if they wait (say) a year to "auto-free-up" a banned name, it would avoid that.

[Canelek]

hopefully people don't just make account after account of names they then attempt to sell.

There have been a few queries in the past from people regarding the selling of "cool" names.

But, names are like children, sometimes; they are really only interesting or clever to the makers. Everyone else kind of just deadpans, "heh".

Oh interesting. I didn't know that could even happen on live, but I guess once they started merging servers it had to come up ...

On live, I do NOT remember being able to scroll through excess characters, but I DO remember them allowing free server transfers. That was different, though, on live this was an issue because Sony/Verant chose to merge servers and allowing free transfers was a fair resolution to a problem that they had created.

On p99, if you end up with more than 8 characters on a single account, that is on you. Login accounts are FREE on EQEMU, and you know about this issue NOW, so if you insist on jamming a single account with 16 characters, oh well, not so sure the devs are going to be that understanding.

Fair play.

I think I will make a separate login account for my green characters. My concern, though, is I will have to delete the "reserved names" from my main (blue) account in order to use them on a separate green-specific account. Not a problem for me, they're level 1s. Problem for people that have a high-level character they'd like to use the name of on green.

Not to mention I've witnessed firsthand numerous instances of the server names database acting fucky about updating after deletion, and not allowing you to re-create a name you just deleted.

In my worthless opinion, the whole cross-server name reservation thing was not a great idea. The repeated names on green are gonna have to be changed anyway when it merges to blue.

I would not make the assumption that the majority of players will even read the forums on a regular basis, let alone that everyone will read this specific post.

LOL, I am not thinking that, at all. But I think that the devs are aware of what I mentioned.

Also, on Live there were other servers that players could transfer to. That really isn't an option on p99 (sorry Red). Is a mod available to make more than 8 characters available? If so, and the devs can, and want to, implement that, great. If not, what other option is there?

[loramin]

If not, what other option is there?

Delete characters until you can see the ones you want to play :)

[Nilstoniakrath]

Delete characters until you can see the ones you want to play :)

Agreed. But personally, I am playing it safe, assuming the "worst," and using multiple accounts so that no single account will have more than eight characters when Green 1.0 merges with Blue.

Thankfully I don't have a single account with 8 max level characters on Blue, whose names I MUST have on Green. Anyone in that situation, good luck :)

All that said, I do have confidence in the p99 devs, they must be aware of the parameters that they are dealing with and will have a mechanism in place to deal with these issues, when they arise, four years or so down the road. I just don't see the need to put myself in a potentially less than ideal situation, if it is avoidable, which for most people, I think it is, simply by creating as many free login accounts as needed.

[slowpoke68]

Fantastic news. Thank you so much!!

I appreciate a part of the point of this exercise is to make fresh names available for blue/green.

So at 9pm is that when we need to start creating new names on blue to then use on that same account on GREEN?

[Killval]

My actual gaming handle is "Killval" but I cannot use it I guess because the word Kill is not allowed or w/e? Can that be worked around somehow pleaseeeeeee. Otherwise I gotta do this annoying Kiillval or Kilval or w/e I just want my real gaming handle I've used for a decade or more, it's from a dark elf name generator so it's not like it doesn't fit the fantasy or w/e.

[jaellman]

Can I make a suggestion? Maybe send out a mass forum email for people who aren't aware?

I've been aware for a few months, but I'm pretty sure all my toons are over 10 and been signed in this year, but had it not this would have been pretty shitty to come back and find a mule missing without being told.

[Tecmos Deception]

Please no one steal the names I want before I can claim them all.

The criteria has been relaxed to:

They are under level 5 and have not logged in since January 1st, 2018.

No, imagine a constant stream of characters being created on Blue, and at some instant that name acceptance query will reference different values because the database tables are now different. So the next char created after that instant will enjoy a greater selection.

On an unrelated note, WTB the name "Sentinel" because "Sentinel Worlds: Future Magic" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentinel_Worlds_I:_Future_Magic) is one of my favorite old school computer games, and I'd love to stare at that name for the next 3.5 years. Will pay everything I have on blue and eventual powerlevels/help/whatever on green with whichever character I give the name to. Probably a cleric or enchanter.

So what'd you guys miss out on?

I was hoping somehow banned account names would get purged, so of course I wanted Tecmos. Alas.

Tried to get Sentinel, Dungeon, Master, Quest besides, all rejected. Did get a few I was after though. Will likely play as Locomotive Breath on green. Bad name for a cleric, but if I make a gnome it'll be ok.

[Octopath]

most i had written down were still unavailable but i was blown away by all the names i kept seeing when i logged in. Still got 1 key name i really wanted so I am pretty pumped.

[Fammaden]

Stuff that's a name of something in game isn't allowed automatically so like sentinel and master and quest are probably just off limits. I couldn't even put the word siren in a surname as sirensong without extra vowels.

[Munkh]

Hard to believe. Still can't choose anything remotely close to names I was wanting.

[Nagoya]

So I was thinking this morning...

Isn't it paradoxal that 99% of the names people are saying "Woohoo I could finally grab ____!!!" are names that would have been purged about one year ago when people like Winchester or Idol took a bullet?

Made me wonder if that purge wasn't just very specifically targetted at some players to make them rage quit, included some random casuals to make it look like it was global, one day madness purge in the tunnel and sayonara. smells like targetted vengeance/attack to me.

Because the 180k names released yesterday were not Gardaluviel, Ertonbobble, Lulyanna, Terpidor or Fillibasp, cause these names were still very available. (https://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=335238)

What people got or wanted to get is Deadpool, Sentinel, Chaos, Wise, Mickey, Canon and whatnot, aka perfectly bannable names.

Not an attack on staff.
Not a conspiracy theory.

But I guess a minute of silence for the dead of last year that didn't deserve it apparently.
