Guild Wars 2

So there is no name change for gems, At the begining of game I was trying to get my name “Mssg” but the name was already taken… so I made char named Dr Mssg. Now I manage to get my Mssg name but there is no option to change my thief name from Dr Mssg to Mssg =/ I did contact with support and guess what? they say that they dont even have tool to do that, name change for X gems should be done long time ago. Arenanet can put so many in gem market but they just dont, why?

Please upvote this so devs can see, making tool like that is like 2 days work and I ask my friend who is programmer.

And if any dev is reading this post, try to change my name somehow from Dr Mssg to Mssg. I save Mssg name on my engi.

It’s on its way, we didn’t need yet another post for this.

Devs stated previously they had no ETA for the feature, which is bad, all that time you can do gender change (already in shop) but not name change seems like a very poor design choice.

Seeing as they’ve rushed guesting in for Jan 28 update, any chance of official update on whether name changes are coming too?

There is a lot of new topics every hour and I dont read forum to often. If this topic is repaeted again sorry

Will be nice to know specific date of this update. I mean this will only bring money to Anet cuz many people will prop change thiers names… so.. hmm

“Hey Martin,

We still don’t have the ability to change character or guild names in Guild Wars 2. I know it’s a popular request, and once we have the ability to we will announce it on our main website: http://guildwars2.com/ . "

I want an account name change, too…

yeah and a way to change acctnames.1234

Yea honestly it’d be a good business move to add in name changes.. Imagine how many people would pay for that. Arenanet if you want to make more money, add in name changing!

No to account name changes, yes to name changes of your characters.

Account name changes opens a pandora’s box of abuse and all those problems, while changing a character name only changes your char’s name in-game and those who’ve got you in their friend lists, etc. can still see you because they’re linked to your account name. It’s purely a cosmetic name, at least, it should be (even though it’s universally unique and possible to chat with, mail to, etc.)

ingame name change will be great, i find it slightly odd that you can gender change yet those ingenius asura dont have the technology to rename someone!

it defeats the purpose of gender swap if your char is still stuck with a name of the other gender (I.E sexy feme char called BOB. or huge male norn warrior called BETTY)

/signed!

We really need name change with januari release. This should have been pssible longtime ago!

im here to show my support for this i only make a character if i have a good name for it. i had so much trouble thinking of a nice name for my engineer that i waited creating one. if i would have the option to name change later at the game i would have started weeks ago with a different name. i’m also supporting account name change because my name was changed by ArenaNet. I’d like to pick a name that i agree with. They entered “Magic Book” in a English – Dutch translator and this here is what i ended up with -.-
