Name Holding policies
Is there some kind of name holding policy or will there ever be? For inactive or unused accounts just holding names?
I was trying to create a character, and it was honestly hilarious how many names are taken. Going through a dictionary and thesaurus just trying random words was pretty funny to see how many people already tagged it. Im just imagining accounts full of level 1 characters named every kind of fruit and vegetable that exists and as many fantasy characters possible. Its actually quite impressive. | ||

You're allowed to petition asking if a name can become available. Staff will check if it's just an empty level 1 holding the name.
This isn't talked about much and I'm sure staff don't want it advertised. There is already enough on their plate(s). It's not necessarily a bad thing for players above level 5. How do you know if a player is going to return. It would look bad on the server if their character lost their name while they were gone. I'm sure you'd be upset if that happened. But yeah there needs to be a purge and they need to fully enforce the naming policy. These two things go hand in hand.

First off, in my opinion if you name your character after a fruit, vegetable, or fantasy character you have no imagination and shouldn't be playing a fantasy RPG. But then again, the fact that there are so many of those names means that lots of people disagree with me.
In any event, Blue has been around a long time, and characters are almost never deleted, so it's to be expected that many popular names are taken. Just make a character with an original name for now, and when Green (someday) comes out you may well be able to name your dark elf "Drizzt".

Oh man those random names are terrible.
Here's my source of Character names: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...Realms_deities Use it well. Note, most of the good ones are taken... by me. | ||

I have to say that all my toons names are generated.
Aaemo doesn't mean that I like emo music Borbama is not a Obama-bashing Troll
