Hi - does anyone know if it's possible to change your character's name after you've started playing?

There are 2 ways to change a character's name:

1. Delete it and start over

2. Get soemone to report you for "inappropriate name," hope for a 72 hour suspension. If you do get suspended, you'll be required to change that character's name before being allowed to log in after your suspension is up.

Get a bunch of buddies to report you for having an inappropriate name. Serve teh ban and rename it.

hmmm, how many peeps would it take reporting to get the suspension automatically?

According to some people it only takes 1, but I guess it depends on how offensive or suggestive the name is.

Careful you don't get your friends' banned in the process for "Abusing the report system".
