Hell, I still have names reserved from the PVP weekend. I never deleted the names off that account, and I've logged back into it since. The characters are still sitting there, names and all.

yes, and if you read the other replies its already been stated that the names have been reserved even if you deleted them, you are just going to have to wait for factions before you can use those names.

nothing else you can do.

if you got the pre-order pack you received a license for a friend that would allow 10 hours of play.

you could try entering that number into the temp account and see if you can create the toons with the same name.

if you did then just delete them and they should be available for use after the 60 minute name freeze.

if you gave this away I hear that target has been selling the pre order packs for like $0.99 or something like that.

omg stop calling them toons. thats worse then calling tombs "new underworld".

also like its already been said, we know why the names are taken, they get reserved during the FPE. and I dont think making more accounts will help, all you will be doing is linking more names with other accounts and not be able to sue them.

Jeez, talk about a frivalous lawsuit! LOL.

(pretty sure you mean "use", just making fun!)

haha yea I meant Use.

but Id also like to add to my comment, that deleting them after doesnt work Either.

during the first event (when we only go to use the new classes) I made an assasin, and I deleted him a day before the event ended. But here is the odd thing. If I put it in my bud list, it says the name is mine so I cant add myself. But, after the free weekend I made a war with the same name, just so I could reserve it. then I decided the heck with it, no one will take it, and I made a new war with a new name.

So it seems that while you can still use the name on the account you made it, you can also delete it and still have it reserved. LiKe I said, I think this was a nice step for Anet to make sure people got to keep the names even if they dont have enough slots yet.

So i am really glad I did not make a free acount to play.
