I swear since I mentioned this ages ago on forums people keep making threads on it.

Lol, sit down and really think for a moment, why is name trading a bannable offense? Sts doesnt just come up one fine day and decide no, trading of names should lead to ban
They are not kids who do things without reason, i thought u play this game long enough to know?
They ban people trading names because such activities lead to scam and thus chaos among the community.
By making tradable kits, Like (Name Kit: Ardbeg) scam will no longer arise, if you want to sell name, there will now be a legit way to do so.
Dont think of everyone as selfish people and you are the only saint, Altho tradable kits will benefit hoarders in the short term now but in the long term everyone will benefit
The only people crying now are those who missed or refuse to get some names during event and turned worst off because they never earn much gold. Or just want to hold on to the believe traditiinal way of farming should be the only avenue for gold.
If you can think of a better idea to solve scam, be my guest but doing nothing and letting this madness continue is avoiding the problem.
Scams here snipes there, bans here no bans there, all these have to stop. Think about it
POTATO ISH ME
No name kit!
Why push and fight for this to go through? Cuz you or your guildy or many of your friends got many name to sell? Like the 1 word vanity names?
You can try to justify it as much as you want. This just unfairly distributes gold and gives the middlefinger to new players.
There should not be a legit way to sell names, since it s against TOS in the first place. And like in the times of heavy plat farming, cheaters get a big advantage over honest players. There is no way you can spin this to me as a good thing, it is utterly selfish and unfair.

selling name is bannable offense ofc
this thread is about tradeable rename kits, kits which pays 30 plat just to rename your character. only that!
not everyone can buy platinum. free offer sometimes not give platinum if we have done download that offer in the past.
seem like too many negative thing come from this idea rather that positive thing.
yeah maybe i must find another way to get plat, maybe like open lock with key. ofc that will cost more gold. lol
The only way to prevent scams is to perma assign names to the email registered with the game. Once the account is registered "Avaree", any additional characters added would receive the main name with a number behind it, e.g. "Avaree2,"Avaree3" so on and so forth. This would free up any future issues with sniping softwares, also make tracking a scammer much easier, botting, & exploits. Yes some have multiple devices and can make multiple acounts, but still this could simplify any future issues.
Also name trading kits will still get scammed, look at the lunar/lep, blinky/blight, cryoworm 52/54, scams.......
Name trading kits only promote and allow profit off another exploitation of this game.
For those wanting a special name, remember its not the name who makes your character stand out, its the person behind the toon.

Hey folks!
I just have an idea about how if devs release "Character Renaming Kits" which is can be purchase by plats on store and ofcourse it tradeable, so for non-plat players would be able to buy it for some golds by trade or from auction house.
So once we use this kit, we can rename our IGN with our desired or unique name, and our previous name will be free to use by other players.
I think this will bring more fun into the game, this will be the chance to everyone to get their desired IGN, especially for non-plat users.
So what do you think guys? Feel free to comment and give feedback.

Ehh i see one flaw to this..
Scammers can make a lot of gold,
then buy a bunch of rename kits,
rename, and keep scamming
As awesome an idea as it sounds,
there's always going to be someone to ruin the fun
Another made a similar post..

wow, +100 for this.. #saynotobuyign
Well, i have another ideas to avoid scamming issues on the future :
Once you purchase & use the kit, u are not just able to rename ur IGN, but also u can store it to the kit, 1 kit = 1 IGN. So next time if u want to change it, u have to purchase new kit, put a new IGN, n replace the previous kit with the new one.
And u still can keep the firts kit which stored ur first IGN on ur inventory slot, or even u can sell or trade ur kit which contains ur first IGN via trade or auction.
I think this will good for AL economy since a poor player can create a unique IGN and sell for some good golds.
So with this way, i think trading name will be safe, and reduce the scammer.
Once again, i still need ur comment, idea, n feedback.
Feel free to reply![]()

I dunno whether to point out the flaw(s) or not..
Name hording leading to lack of available names
Scammers can use the stolen money to buy new name kits, assuming having at least 2 character slots, can delete one character, use name kit for the new character, rinse and repeat
Why people getting energetic once they see word " ReName kit"
Just have a break n see half of them are asking for only plat paying kit "WHICH DON'T CONTAIN ANY NAME IN IT"
If we say Lock opening kit, does it means Kit with fixed sns? No its called keys which only pays plat fees....
Many are demanding only a kit by using which they can rename their toon with that new name which they have in mind...
And kit with stocked name is very bad idea... Cos rich march can stock all good names like stocked locks....
So NO TO KITS WHICH STOCKS NAMES
And YES FOR KITS WHICH ONLY PAYS RENAME 30 PLAT FEES
Easy idea
After renaming a char for 30 plats, they get the option to preserve their previous name in a chest for another 30 plats
The chest will be shown as (Name Kit: (Previous IGN))
Opening will delete your current ign and change it to the one in the chest
Problems
1. Many people who hoarded names are already earning a lot of gold already anyways, and they might be richer without this chest, why? because they can scam names and reuse that same name to keep scamming people
2. Name is just like vanity, vanity doesn't give stats, but they are the most expensive items in game.
Selling names is against the ToS because it makes people susceptible to scamming, with this kit, it will make name selling legit.
Not aiming at errorrz for this, just using his quotes because they cover majority of the more productive and legit points for arguments.
I would like to keep this thread clean, if you want to argue with it, be sure to provide a well thought out reasoning, we are civilised people, offensive words like "Stupid" and "idiot" only degrades the person using such words because it shows that he is out of reasons and can only resort to insults.
POTATO ISH ME
This might be a wide stretch for you, but just try this thought experiment: Selling names is not only against TOS because of the risk of scamming, but also because of the unfairness involved. Of Course the devs have the last word on this and we both are speculating about the intention, but hey, they forbidd it, and you can get banned for it.
The intended use for a name is imho: use it or release it! No matter how often you repeat your desire to sell your names without the risk of getting banned and how much you try to paint it as if only the possible scams were your concern. You asked to keep this thread clean, but you polluted it at start with your selfish wish to legalize the name exploit. The Hypocrisy level of this thread just went through the roof.

What's up with the boom of "ideas" for name trading ? Especially AFTER the release of old name.
I'm sure this is PURELY coincidental and have NOTHING AT ALL to do with making money from horded names.
Also, this is essentially promoting name selling and hoarding.
Not to mention, once this is available, it'd unlock a new form of name hoarding.
For example, if i know people want "potato", and if they can't get it , they'd go for "potatoo" or "potatooo", or "xpotatox" or anything of that sort. So then i buy and reserved all of that, so i can sell these "second best" to them at a "cheaper price" if they aren't willing to pay the 10m for "potato".
I think this will just make the "lack of decent name" issue for new player worse
