What GM do I have to know to obtain a 4 letter modification of my current character name?

I see an abundance of people in EC tunnel with 3 letter surnames and first names now.

Wondering why a petition i made at the advice of one of these players was ignored when asking for a modification of my name?

Any ideas from those not shy? im semi new here, but aggrevated by the lack of contact from staff is all.

Did you use /petition? That's generally not the best way. There's a petition forum here to use.

Primary character names? I know they change surnames upon request, but main names used to be off-limits. Was there a policy change at some point? I asked once upon a time about name changes and was told that it would not be done under any circumstance save forced changes of inappropriate names.

I'm pretty sure surnames can be three letters.

However, I find it hard to believe three-letter first names are really happening. Any screenshots?

some people have them but its a rare bird. the first couple weeks of the server people were able to make 3 letter names. i believe. People are not requesting these names and GMs are not giving out 3 letter names, @OP lmao come on man

It's classic - one of my friends on rodcet in 99 was named "Ven". Asked them how they did it - they said they went LD at char creation when trying to pick a name.

Hey guys wouldn't it be funny if I had "Lfg" as a surname, and then when I'm LFG I could be Swish Lfg LFG :D

I'd be SO lfg right there! Funny right?

I've seen characters with titles in their name too, and I'm not talking about the titles from the best of the best competitions. Recently "of Neriak" comes to mind. I know I asked for something like "Storm Warden" and I was lol'd at by the guide in tells.

It depends on who you know, maybe?

Sometimes staff will give out temporary titles for an event, or just for funsies I guess, but they will be removed eventually. "of Neriak" was from the fashion show. "the Quick" was from the gnome race and has been removed already. The only titles that should remain indefinitely are from the BotB.
