Purge of stocked Level 1 names...

[myriverse]

Swish should purge his gif collection before starting another poll.

Wipes of characters under lvl 10 who have not been logged in for X amount of time is classic and happened a few times that I can remember on live.

They only purged during server mergers.

Fully support. Have tried in vain to obtain Japanese condiment names. PMed a couple of times but no response to last logins back in 2010.

***Character Purge***

Time has come to do some cleanup on character data across the servers.
On August 23rd (Pacific), we will be doing a system-wide cleanup of
level 1 characters. All level 1 characters that have not been played
within 30 days from the date of the purge will be deleted. As GMs will
not be able to restore any characters that are deleted, please be
certain to log in any level 1 characters that you wish to keep prior to
the purge.

Full purge on all low level characters. Would help the economy too.

Time to gain one level on a bunch of characters.

Just be creative, there is no reason I should be impacted because you didn't get your preferred name.

Gotta use it or lose it.

Can't delete characters for the many reasons already discussed, but there's precious little valid objection to the notion of adding a couple X's to the end of the name of any very low-level character that hasn't been used for some excessive length of time. I wouldn't care if my Hole Key mule became soandsoXX instead of soandso.

Of course it's unlikely anything will change, so the best you can do is choose a longer name and make sure the first three or four letters spell out something you like. That's the only portion of a name most folks refer to others by in chat anyway.
