The value of a name

doughboy · #1 06-02-2014, 04:01 AM

I was wondering if there has been a known instance where someone reserves a name on the server and buy/sells it or a large amount of platinum.

For instance if one were to have the name of "Cloud", how much do you guys think I could get for it?

Edit: I do not actually have the name "Cloud" for sale, in case anyone makes the mistake of making an actual offer.

100 pp for cloud name.

Not sure if there's any real market for names, I've seen them auctioned before and I've seen a few purchased however, I'd say it treads awfully close to illicit activity.

Illicit activity, how so?

Hm, guess I'll have to wait a couple days to get some good information. I'll check later. 900+ views (yes!) 3 page long (yes!). Now lets see whats inside (yeah baby!)...
uh nothing.

There's nothing here.
Apparently Argh's "not sure" has the value of a thousand men from p99. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Not illicit though, because they delete the character on their account to free up the name, and you make the character on your own account.

No buying/selling of characters happens.

I am sad. I thought this was going to be a thread about how important it is to have a character name that you love.
