We're Freeing up Old Character Names

THANK YOU!!! Maybe I can finally get the proper spelling of my name, which has been taken by a level 1 the entire time I've played the game. Awesome news.

Right or wrong, I can hardly tell. I'm on the wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
Dear GGG

Maybe just combine a account name with a character name, separated by dot.
„AccountName.CharacteName” (displaying AccountName on interface elements can be an option)
Each CharacterName will be unique only in its AccountName scope. Isn't it a better solution?

Old accounts just leave as they are. Even if they are no longer playing PoE they don't deserve 'sneaky' character name change, I think.

They really have. I love GGG. My all time favorite gaming company. They have the best quality, constant new things, they don't even charge you for the game or to play.... and their customer service is above and beyond. <3

What a relief. I'll finally be able to use Perpetually_Drunk_Aussie at last!
superb.. Now i can finally use my Charname cyborg_hamster.

Joke. I really dont care if the usual 'boring' movie/book/anime/song/actor/etc.. names are freed up (again) because i make my own names.

niceeeeee
Never realised people were so attached to their character names. I think choosing a new name on the spur of the moment kinda adds to the fun. Or is it just me.
Timezone: GMT +10 (Australia). CASUAL player but I play whenever I can.

Time to buy some character slots and makes space to reserve some names that people here want KappaPride.
