How will character names be handled?

I'd like for us to be able to keep the characters we make on beta, just have them reset as brand new at release.

If you want a name go reserve it on p99,

if you already did then you're good to go.

the thing that happend, so main char im playing is a ogre shaman, but decided to help my lvl quicker by boxing a monk, but my monk dies and is back at freeport, so i see this other monk killing stuff, i was lvl 5 on my toon, this other was 3, so i go attack him, and not doing any form of eq pvp prior to playing here, i totally sucked, and so bazooka is chilling there killing/camping this lvl 5 mage for hours, and he starts to go after me, at first when he attacked me, i went to run to inspect him, but he he must've been thinking i was going to attack him, nothing twords him there, so he roots, and blinds, roots and blinds having fun, hours after that, every time he sees my char, he keeps pking me, im thinking shit, man, you're 10 lvls higher then me, so how can i be on par with you pvp wise, but yea bad on my part sending angry tells, but what ever, lets pvp

I was definitely able to create a name on Red99 that is not saved on my account on P99 (and is in use by someone on P99) so I don't think this is in yet.

Will this be true at some point in the future? Just disabled for beta or something?

Im pretty sure R99 will be a seperate NEW server.. all names open
So saving names on P99 and beta for R99 is futile

just be quick when server launches

Rogean already stated that the names saved on P99 accounts will be saved for those accounts on Red99. This just isn't the case right now. Not sure why that is though.
