    Tell me about it. I stopped playing for a long time and lost my name. Hopefully whoever has it isn't trying to profit from it.

    Nah it isn't a scam in 95% of "good name" cases. I've seen many
    succesful trades and players mostly know who sells names and which ones. If they scammed it'd ruin their rep completely.

    But it's still against STS policies.

    As guild selling was discussed long time ago, Samhayne said that anything which cannot be traded via trade window (guilds, names, Founder's etc.) are forbidden and therefore reportable actions which result in ban.

    I personally think that having a good name is priceless.

    That is true, I know that. Just wanting to know that do they ban people for this, if they do, have they banned someone for this, or guild selling

    I find it distasteful how so many people abuse Sts kindness. I personally feel they deserve to be banned.

    It's realy hard to get a decent name these days. I made new characters when the new classes came out, and I had a list of 50+ names I liked to work down when I created them. I went through about 40 of them to name the first one, then ran the rest of my list out and had to think up another 30 or so more to get the second one. It's gotten kind of crazy. (Although one thing that made it harder for me is I wasn't willing to use a "xxxMYNAMExxx" style name. I think they look stupid.)

    It's probably time for STS to get a little more aggressive with expiring characters that haven't been active to free up some names back into circulation. I like the way one game I played did it: you get to keep your character for some time period relative to level without logging in, (e.g. 1 week per level) or else it's gone. So a L1 would have to log in once a week to stay alive, but a L76 would have close to two years. If STS just harvested the long-abandoned characters, I bet it would make getting a decent name a whole lot easier.

    There's people that sold before sts even gave names, when sts gave names it boosted this idea more
    When there is too much
