whoever suggested to make it on the hb name change formant said a good idea, a once a month thing + maybe an additional goldsink for it would be great.

I support the addition of a stylist, but wanting to change your name/face/height/etc is just ridiculous. Just don't be a retard during the character creation process, mmkay?

I can think of about 20 situations that would completely eliminate your side of the argument but I'll give you only one since I'm not bored enough to waste 20 servers on this.

Say you name an elementalist "Fires of Dread" or whatever, and dress it up accordingly. Then when you get into the game really deep and get really good you realize you want to be an air elementalist instead of a fire elementalist. Sooooo the way it is now you'd have to start all over to change your name but if you implemented all the other stuff you could simply change your name/whatever and you'd be able to keep your character.

It doesn't have to be a dumb reason that you'd want to change your name, it could simply be a change of mood or a misunderstanding.

And that's my two cents until this topic gets a poll.

/signed

dunno if some1 already said this (im definitely not looking through 51 pages lol)
but give it a time limit between ea. name change, like it can only be done once every couple of months, like WoW and maybe a price fee of a couple K, so if some1 really wants to change their name because of hate, they will gladly raise up the money to change it unlike the fact if they want to do it just to abuse it, they will be wasting their money

YES!

I also got that as a reply to a support ticket i submitted to PlayNC. One of my characters was named after someone close to me who is no longer with us, and... bleh i'd just really really really REALLY like to change it. I'd gladly take a 72 hour ban if i could change that character's name.

/signed i dont like some of my characters name....

undying.truth · Mar 10, 2008, 04:04 AM // 04:04

/signed - I would also like to see less restrictions on what we can name our characters. It's really annoying to have to use the name "U Z I E L" instead of just "Uziel" because names have to have at least two parts...

I totally agree because with GW2 coming out, your new gw2 character has bonuses with tiles with its corresponding name. And since i made my file name luxon stee (and the luxons no longer being there) I would love to change my name.

TOTALLY WRONG

you choose which HOM inheritance you want your new character name character to get.

you can RESERVE a name but you dont have to use it.

its 200 years later and you are named for great great gramps?

seriously?....

Axel Zinfandel · Mar 16, 2008, 07:10 PM // 19:10

/signed, but only if there is a 500-1k fee, and/or skill point fee along with it.

Otherwise, I can see bots, scammers, and overall jackasses abusing this feature, even if the cost is a -low- ammount of gold.

Cahalith · Mar 16, 2008, 07:36 PM // 19:36

I think being able to change your name but have it cost money is a good idea.

Definitely charge money to reduce abuse. Still /signed.

pumpkin pie · Apr 20, 2008, 09:11 AM // 09:11

/signed because I wish to change a couple of my characters name

my vote only count if its free from paying real life money :P

Akolo · Apr 20, 2008, 09:17 AM // 09:17

not signed if you can change every month.. if this will be true, only make it so you can change your name ONCE... oh , and customized items will be a problem

.

/signed anyway, would be nice if you screwed up a name long time ago....

Ber_ek · Apr 20, 2008, 10:12 AM // 10:12

would be nice if name change would be available only once a year

Lilith St Cyr · Apr 20, 2008, 10:15 AM // 10:15

I've contemplated asking someone to report me, just so I can change that stupid name...

Hugh Manatee · Apr 20, 2008, 06:57 PM // 18:57

so the first post on this was 3 years ago.... still no dice...

Well, yeah I'd be nice to change a name ad apearance...
