:P  oh come on kiern the whole reason i posted this was because i did read it! the devs arent going to reserve names! and as for banning me... how are they going to do that? all they will do is ban that name! how are they going to possibly trace me back to my main sn? surely you dont think i would be dumb enough to register the sn i am hijacking with my real email or something... :rolleyes: and as for you altharion how do you know they will ever make us register new names again? This will be a turning point in planeshift as we know it! they may never make us register again because really crystal blue will make planeshift an actual game! now planeshift is just a interactive chat room but as soon as combat, monsters and more places to explore its inevitable that the game will explode with popularity! Why would they ever have to make us register again after that? After crystal blue i think the devs will start molding around the game and releasing updates like a normal game. We may very well never have a character swipe like this again.
                                                 I bid you all a farwell,
                                                                              Kixie

Ok, so you did read it, that just makes you look like even more of an idiot...because what they are saying is that they more then likely will reserve names for CB...as for tracing you it is fairly easy for the developers to do, if they had reason to (ex: people complaining about you).

have you read the post? i mean all of the clues? everything anyone halfway official has even said? the most that has been said by acraig is that the team is still deciding! there is about a 34% chance we will be able to reserve names. And if there comes a time where names are first come first serve then i will take the opportunity and reap the rewards. And just for the record so what if they did trace me? they ban my new character probally like a week old? then what? haha not much of a loss to the benefits i could earn. Well maybe not earn... but you know what i mean.

P.S. cmon you have to admit its fun being the bad guy sometimes.... :P

Where do you see anything about a 34% chance?  

And my point was, if they can trace you, your scheme won\'t work and you won\'t go far anywhere, because the names will be given back and you will just be the peanut who no one deals with...if you RP a bad guy that is fine with me, but this is just being a dumbass.

Have you ever heard of IP address you fool ? They could already trace you from your stupid post. ISP are usually very helpful with this.

Hey guys you know, It?s a game it doesn?t matter!
But.... what a game this is going to be!
Yeah!  one of the Planeshift goals is for real people driving the game instead of it been chock full of ncp\'s

and in this alpha stage... and forget that! in these forums, the passion of your arguments is testimony to the fact that the evolving PS game will surpass our expatiations! if you guys put half the fight into the game as you do here in these forums..well then who\'s to say that Planeshift is a game and not some where real!

Suddenly my character kayto is very important,
 steal his name and so what! only i can be Kayto!

I am the one who know\'s his history and how he ticks, if some one thinks they can do a better job then let them try ...because if they can then Kaytos the winner and that makes me happy as his creator.
f they cant, well I will make it clear that Kayto has a new id, and as the one who posts all his stories and pics in the planeshift forums I can edit all ref\'s of the old id and replace them with the new!

Of course even this does not really matter because all we\'ve done so far, is part of the build up and maken/shapen of PS. What is important is that once we get the first real playable ver...we play on and we dont look back!
My in game character\'s are Wolfshade and Kayto! no they wont try to join two different Guilds :rolleyes: !!!!

Well, to say something about name stealing:
I think theyll make accounts, where you have multiple Characters....
so id say, they ban whole account and not just one character.
This account thing has been discussed in other threads, too, and I really think theyll add it...
So, dont make devs ( or later GMs) not angry!
