A little kind of suggestion

[Magalawo]

Hello fellas ,peeps and ladies. As the title says , it's a little suggeestion , exactly it will look like a question , plagiarism of the thread which has been created by Resistant with the theme of ,,Busy guild Names,,

Link ->

http://forum.infinitymu.net/showthread.php?89772-Busy-Guild-Names

This deal has been made only for guilds so i would like to ask if it is possible to do the same with NickNames !? Because many people uses nick names and stay inactive in order to get it busied.Of course , unlike Guilds , Nick names are really many , so thats the only case confusing me. On the other hand , the literal meaning of these 2 burdens are the same so why not to do this ?

Can i have your opinions about it guys ?
Thanks for Reading ,
Regards <c>Shredded

Hello, I will disagree with this suggestion like I disagreed with SAME suggestion but by Kronwell.B (KwaithexiN -his new name)

First, (example) if my name is Hookah and I left game for unlimited time and when I come back and if my name is renamed to Player#6921 how you think I will feel and if you want that name "Hookah" and you rename your name to it and don't you think that people who know me, will know you as me ? I think if that name which you want, it's taken you can write it with numbers, if can't then here is already a system where you can write names with symbols (example: ~H00kaH$) a.k.a Webshop - Change Name :rofl:

And second, our administrator RESiSTANT wrote exactly in our website

This means even after you come back after a few years, your characters and items will still be here and ready for action.

if I am not wrong this means that nothing will be changed in your account (names, items, credits, etc... with one work - your account will stand as you left it).
I think it's unnecessary to write what I think this one sentence means.

Sorry if something but I am saying my opinion :happyy:

I think thats a pretty good idea. However its too much work in my opinion. I dont think they will agree to this because think about it. How many players would want to change their name and how many accounts / characters are created. A lof of people will want this and therefore the Administrators who have enough work already will have to check when those characters were active and stuff. And btw if they are not active how will they change their name? Will they remove them or? With guilds its easy just disband but with chars its different. I like the idea but its not likely it will take effect

 

[asungot]

I agree with this but if the character is full stats you shouldn't steal it. Even if its inactive. And if the character is just a stock or lvl1/ not full stats then maybe. To check the name you want if its available, Edit the "username" and search the name you like in this url: http://www.infinitymu.net/info/player/username

To Horrific,

Actually you're right mate , there were some topics which confused me and this is one of them. But mostly , when someone wants to use the name just for get it busied he uses it in a noval character which got no Fo stats , all of the stats are 25 just like in the beggining. So it's easy to figure out if someone really playing or played or just wants to have fun by creating tons of nick names

 

[TrueHater]

Agree with this suggestion. I got some names which are taken by some ppl and they don`t use them.
Thumbs up.

 

[Trivela]

Agree with Wolfie, cuz there are such a good names used by nubts in the past, if they are gone for example for half or full year.. we wont wait for their comeback...

Do you know how many work this will be given to the admin???
and then we got the thing about when you leave for some years you still can get back with all same stuff names and etc.


The admin will be spending more time on Look up the other guy he's account. Last time connect time. And then need to change 2 names your and the other 1 that isnt active.

So there will be alot of Username1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9 and when they come back they will be like why the hell is my name changed ???

Each Player got a name 1 of a kind.

on the 1 thing it can be a good suggestion. But on the other side it can be such a bad suggestion.



i going to give a challange to the Creator of this Thread.
You can contackt all the guys who agreed to this idea.

put all the positive and all the negative points in your first thread.
About chaging a name to you. And to the inactive player.
what will bring this to the server in the future.


Also i give a little thing.
Say you get inactive From tomorrow.
2 years later a player joins and stay here for some time. he see that the player with username 'Shredded" is inactive for like 2 years. And ask for that change.

You come back 2 months after they changed he's name to yours. How will you feel to see your username changed from "Shredded" to "User50".

Think about that too.

Are you going to ask for your old name back because you plays back and want your old name back because the server says that nothing will change if you left this server from some time.



To add:
Like BDG mention:

This means even after you come back after a few years, your characters and items will still be here and ready for action.

this can be found in : http://www.infinitymu.net/about-infinitymu at the button of that page.
what also means that you can still have your char name.

this was my thing

 

[BraveHeart]

I'm not agree with this, in short I'd say that I wouldn't lose my name just because of inactivity, if we got a name that you'd wish to use, sorry, but if we go it, it's because we are oooooolder, and the only thing that prooves it, would be the name and would be disrespectful to remove it from their characters. Just wonder if you go inactive, then come back and your name is :Re-named123 (or whatever), if I suddenly see some old dudes, like for example.. MasterZero, Nocturnal, JusTFoRWaR, McAutority (which most likely you won't know) or even Graf (xD) and I salute them and they tell me, hey I just got this name, I'm not him/her, that would be really confusing and disturbing. I got also older accounts than the current I'm using, and I wouldn't like to lose the names of it, that's like.. empathy?, do not be that selfish, they were players and someday they could be playing again and no one can steal their names, unless they change it by'em own choice .

Hello [VN]Shredded[/VN], I am sorry to disagree with this suggestion.. I think all players who are registered in this community has the right to keep their desired Nick's even if they are in-active of many years..

Just like the site says:

The best private server for MU online in the internet. InfinityMU is your place to be since 2008 and no wipes ever. This means even after you come back after a few years, your characters and items will still be here and ready for action.

And I think this was clearly said.. And I also notice some old players came by and visit the game.. So, maybe your suggestion would not be necessary to apply...

 

[Halfdanjal]

Okay, as I already mentioned earlier. This can be done and this can be made official. If you don't play for 6 months or 1 year, your nickname is lost and is automatically made to _032143 (for example), first user gets _000000, second gets _000001 and so on. When you come back and you see, that your nickname is like that, you can change your name for free, but not including anything else that you can when you create it in-game. Names with - and . and so on still should be pay to change. This way will prevent anyone to make this suggestion again and if it is official, everybody will know it and will be ready. If you don't want your nickname to change, just login with your character once in a few months and your nickname will be yours. I know that this is possible to create and this is the only possible way, that will satisfy most of the users. No matter what you have on the account, no matter how much you have played, if you are inactive for 6 months or year, your nickname goes boom. If it will happen like that, then I agree with the suggestion.

 

[Dimer]

I don't agree with this suggestion for the following reasons:
1.Too much work for the Administrators,who have a lot to do and this will only make their work too much to handle.

2.People who took the names at the start,if they return they will be disappointed and go straight to the Admin to make a problem,which will only cause more problems.It is unfair to them much more than your desire.

3.I think that the opportunity to change Guild Names is enough as of this moment.

I know you mean well,but to be honest,it's not needed at this very moment and it's clearly unfair to a big ammount of people.

 

[RESiSTANT]

It can be also for character names but only those which are not full stats. You can check them via the website. If an character name you would like to create is busy and it's not full stats then you can ask me via support@infinitymu.net if I can free it for you to use. If character is full stats the situation is different because many old players is coming back every day.

 

[Halfdanjal]

But what do you all think of my suggestion? If you make it happen, this can make a lot of changes, and there will be no more suggestions like this one. If you make my idea happen, then starting from that moment, start the countdown and only users who are inactive for that period will get their name changed AUTOMATICALLY, so no work for Administrators. And when they come back they just change their name. Easy as that.
