    Default Anyone have an alt named Deadz?

    This is my prefered MMo name, i know this is a dumb question and all, but i was wondering if anyone has a character they don't play using this name, i got it on Thelanis, but wanted to try playing on this server (Khyber) but this is hampering my fun there! If anyone has a character w/ that name but does not play the character, please help! LoL thank you.

    Default I did

    I was more taking a long shot in the dark that it's unused on someone's account who didn't care.

    You are a long way away from home my friend...

    Everyone here cares, even if they act like they dont. If you didnt already try to use that name on khyber, I assure you that someone is already holding it at ransom by now.


    *See above post*

    And...if you look around on the khyber marketplace there are some other people that will chime in and say that 400k is cheap and the last one they sold went for 7 mil.

    But i did make a character on khyber, and i did check, and someone had the name.. that's the reason for this post, was just curious if i could find the owner i guess, since there is no character / account search.

    likely not, and would be impossible to find out, especially if someone had the name long ago and left the game.

    Only way to tell if the character is active is to log in as another character and send them an in-game mail. However, you aren't likely to win either way. If the mail gets returned, that means the player probably isn't active. If the character is active, that means the player probably won't want to give up the name they are using. The odds of both the player being active and willing to give up the name are extremely small.

    So, honeslty don't know here... Do characters ever get purged from the db due to inactivity? If not, I guess as time goes on we'll get to see more and more names like "xxDr'i'zz'txxxxxxz"
    You may know me as: Gannot, Gonnet, Gunnet, Ginnet, Gaxxat, Gennot, Gannut, Gxnnxt, Horseface, Izzayhay, Pailmaster, Artifactual, Gynnet and/or Barred. What? I like alts.

    Yeah i'm a bit of a stickler about names in my mmo.. i don't know why, just one of those things.. maybe i'll use it as my Surname for all my toons...

    It hampers my fun because i'm hopping servers back and forth.. just getting "settled" so to speak.

    ON the plus side, ddo is a fun experience

    Best thing to do is add the name to your friends list. If you see information (race, class or guild) that means have been used in the last months, if nothing but the name appears, it might be lost in a cancelled account from long ago. But if you really want to see and keep an eye on the name, always keep it in your friends list.
