hehe, I just got this news on facebook.

well, for me, I stopped playing a long time ago just because of the stupid "name already exists" thing.

sometimes I do reinstall and log in; try to make a char and end up wasting 20-30min. on the name already exists screen, then alt f4 go play something else.

Just need to make character names private and communicate via account name, HairyBotter.
Why should I care how do you call your avatar while I need to communicate to you, summoner?
This is just a band-aid. The only way to really fix the naming problem is to allow duplicate names. If you free old names now all good names will be taken again in two month and we end up in the same situation. It might be heretic to say this in a path of exile forum, but diablo 3 handled character names A LOT better than path of exile.
Great! Path of Exile get ready for the glorious advent of Dick_Master69
