Default Question Regarding Naming Character(s) (After Reading Rules, etc.)

Hello,

What would happen to a character's name if/when the Green server is transferred to the Blue server if the character has the same name as a character on the Blue server on the same account?

If I delete the character with the same name on the Blue server will that essentially save or reserve the name for the character on the Green server when Green is transferred to Blue?

Thanks in advance,

The truth is no one knows for certain exactly how this will be handled because the staff have not disclosed their plans regarding names and the merge. Any other response is speculation.

You couldnt have the same name on Green and Teal so when they merged there was no name conflicts

Good to know, interesting they allowed this between blue and green when their original plan (though now walked back) was to merge the two

they allowed name camping on blue, where you would hold your own name on blue to make it for green if I remember right.

It's easy to add an X which is the trad method. Don't worry the merge will happen.

Thanks y'all for your replies and input.

So in other words if I delete the character(s) on blue with the same name(s) as the character(s) on green, then the names will still be reserved/held on blue until the merge happens? For example, no one can make character(s) on blue with the same name(s) as my character(s) on green?
