Dont care about my characters names, theyre all spur of the moment in creation.

Lots of Pre-salty tears though from players afraid of losing "their names", I say begone with the names and let the server start fresh

Still some people would feel left out. It's better these days to go all in and treat everyone on equal footing.
Names and such arent personal anyway, it's just letters scrambled together and tons of people have used the same scribbling in the past present and future

I chose Athemis back in 1999 randomly for a gnome mage.. That name stuck with me through all video games, and nobody ever has it [You must be logged in to view images.

Get creative!!! When in doubt, just spell your favorite name backwards haha!

I guess "compete consensus" is one way to describe a poll that is literally a dead 50/50 split.
Was this the poll question?

No? Then I guess I'm not arguing with the poll results.

But if you wanted to disagree with what I actually wrote, how about you just quote a single person making the argument (not checking a box in a poll, but actually saying) that renaming level 1s no one uses would be a bad thing? Then I can read it, then I'll no longer be able to say:

Yes, it was. The poll asked asked if things should stay as is or if we should revisit the naming policy for a rename/delete. OP was quite clear what he explained in his OP, and it seems half of the people want things to stay the same.

Oh, yeah, of course, it doesn't count.

Edit: Whoops, you said rename not delete, my bad.

I would love to see the naming policy actually be enforced, only fantasy names.
No Truhmp Suhpporter or Beeg Cawk or Russel Crow.

I voted no because the less horrible names available the better.

Guys, go make an account right now. It takes literally 5 seconds.
Then create 8 toons.
Go for it! I'll wait.

I just got Republic, Maid, Motherless and other stupid 'wordnames' that were available (just randomly tried a few words and bingo).
Also got another 5 very easy to pronouce names under 6 characters. (ditto with names)

This is just fake news cause you got like one stupid name you make a fixation on and you believe you could get it in a new fresh FTE race for names. people wanna go grab Jesus or Love or Death or i don't know?

I've been wanting to name a toon Nausicaa forever and i'm kinda mad at the lad who took the name and never played the character.

but honestly, whatthefuckever. there are still about ten gazillions names available, including ten billions of very fine ones.

Stop whining and think about your name.

If anything, I think it will filter through all the crap and joke names that are already taken on Blue and it's great.

The name issue is a classic case of something that is only a problem in the head of people who didn't even try.

Don't listen to the whiners Devs. focus your CSR time on much more important/relevent issues please ^^ the system you devised is fine and will make sure nobody has their reputation stolen, for those for whom it matters. for everyone else we will find kickass names next month np.
