Green Naming Policy (Petition)

[Vidar]

So let me get this straight.

I have 3 accounts tied to my forum account or whatever. If i have 1 name on each account that i want on green i have to log into 3 separate accounts instead of being able to use them all on 1 account?

It has nothing to do with your forum account. In their announcement, they stated that you can use your name on Blue on Green IF you use the same login account. So the number of accounts you will have to log on to will not change, if you decide to recreate characters on Green with the same names you have on Blue.

No i mean the eqemu account not forum. And i have names spread across 3 accounts. my question is will be able to take a name from all 3 and put them on one account on green. if not that is retarded.

The way it was worded, you cannot move the name from one account to another. Not sure they have a way of knowing that you "own" that other account, or have the desire to do that extra legwork, even if they do have a way

Yah this is what i am worried about. When i joined p99 you had to make an account with EQEMU then you could log into the game. But with that account you were allowed to have 3 accounts per eqemu account(seems to me that this could a way for them to see that we own names across 3 diff accounts)( not to mention when i made characters on these different accounts i didnt know it would impact my naming abilities on a server however many years in the future.). Considering that we are on year 10 of a 3(ish) year timeline it isnt hard to see that me and many others have WAAAYYYY more characters and accounts than we would have on a recycle server. BUUUTTTT, with this naming set up i have to continue to use 3 accounts to use the names that i "Own". They really do need to rethink this naming rule thing. It seems that there are plenty of ways to accomplish what they want without all the downsides.

Personally, it is a new server and names should be up for grabs. and if you dont care enough to be there day one to get yours then you dont care. I dont see the problem with that. Yes there are special cases but that is far from the norm. There are too many accounts that have been inactive for 1+ years for it to be ok to save their names. they arent playing. they dont matter. it isnt difficult to get. Dont reward people who arent playing and punish people who are. come on.

/rant over i guess. This is just a really shitty situation. I have been so excited about green but this is so dumb. from top to bottom this isnt a smart move.
