    Default Is it save to change my name?

    I want to change my name to a old ign i used before.
    I want to rename it, but some are saying there are people using macros to get names which are deleted?
    Is it save to change my name? It will probably take me 2-3 seconds if im fast.
    Zzzzz why is this getting ridiculous,nowadays people cant even change their name without worries

    As long as no one knows your old ign, they can't "snipe it"
    As for the people using macro, they just constantly spam "create" with a certain names and hope it'll be a hit.

    So, if no one knows/is targeting your ign, you should be safe

    I honestly would not even try to change names for at least a month...im have no doubt there are ppl with macros spamming names they want.so no i wouldnt change names for a bit...

    It's funny seeing people take the game way way too seriously (the one with macros)
    Why they can't just let everyone rename?
    It's just frustrating you can't enjoy the game because of these people.

    Lol. Why is that all of a sudden you wanna change back to your "old" ign that you supposedly used before even after that release of names. I call bs. Complaining about macros? Lol you probably broke the ToS also buying a "my old ign" sad. I hope you get sniped. (:

    Idiotic how people can be. "I broke the ToS I don't deserve to be sniped either."

    Wtf? I didn't buy any ign.
    Before telling bullsh*t like that, you should be aware people have more than one toon and i would like to use my Endgame name on my twink.
    Have a nice day. People get more ridiculous every day.

    That still doesn't explain why you want to change after a few days of the release of old names.

    I feel super lucky...days ago before it was announced...

    I was having fun in GC by PMing friends from crazy new made igns...
    Suddenly idea popped to try my dream ign of dbz and kaaboooommm I got it \o/

    But this macro thing is scary... I would wait for months (cos no plats either :P)

    I don't have to explain it to you anyways lol.
    I didn't ask if you believe me, i asked if it is save to change my name.
    You wasted like 2 minutes replying without answering my question so kindly leave my thread.
    Not buying igns because 1) I'm not rich 2) i don't care about IGNs because your skills represent your name, that's btw the reason why I want to use my endgame name on my twink because everybody knows me at that name.

    Thanks!

    1) Its Safe not save bud.
    2) it seems fishy that you asks such a logical question considering people are selling tons of names.
    3) your question has already been answered so why would I repeat someone else.

    I can think of a couple reasons why one would wait a few days before deciding to change name

    -You got a name later than most (maybe it's not a top notch name, not a 3-letter name, not a 1-word name, or maybe it somehow eluded the frantic name grabbing from the first few hours)
    -You wanted to wait and see if the original owner came to reclaim it a bit later than others (you may want to wait for a few months in this case)
    -You couldn't decide which name you wanted on your main toon/your new twink
    -You couldn't decide whether you wanted to give up your current name (I know it may sound silly, but there's some sentimental attachment to your name... You know?)
    -You were afraid many people were still trying to get names out of this and would get yours in the short span it takes to switch
    -You were afraid of these macro people and couldn't decide whether it was worth the risk, ultimately asking the forums for opinions (and you may want more than a couple answers)

    I've been plagued by some of these and in the end, I think I'll just keep my name not the best but all other names look wrong when I play with them xD
