Hey, i'm not sure if this is the right place to be, but never hurts to try.

i read Guild Wars 2 reserves character names, my question would be.. does any1 happen to know if there is a time limit as to how long the name will be reserved? or does any1 have a link with extended info about Guild Wars 2.

If any1 could awnser this, thnx..
if you guys dont deal with GW2 related question.. well srry to waste ur time xD

thnx in advance, Dragons Avatar

No, they haven't said. You can always look on the official gw wiki site and ask/look there.

We know-nothing- about GW2 past whats on the site,dont even bother to ask.

I'm guessing its going to be around a couple weeks-month,they arent going to keep names reserved for long i wouldnt think.

The synopsis on the wiki states that the character name reservation will be part of the HoM system.

I assume it will be on the same use or lose schedule as the HoM.

Every time a GW2 thread is made, a kitten is killed.

Stop the cruelty, read the wiki and use common sense.

Cracked me up xD

But back to the question, a time limit hasent been said, altho could very much work on the same system they have already.

the thing that bothers me is those that have played gw1
and do not plan to play gw2
wut will become of those names?

i'd like to hope they're gonna implement some sort of time release system

i would even think that for some ppl who r on the fence bout purchasing gw2 or not
it could be a motivating factor to purchase it jus to keep their name?

then again...
if there was known date set for it
u'd see a huge baby boom in new charas on that day? @__@

Oh the horror. Heroes like "Xxx Legolas Xxx" and "Narato The First" will never see the light of day in GW2.
Oh... wait a miniute

They are reserving Guild names as well and there are a lot of non active ones out there.
