Guild Wars 2

Long ago when I had no interest in playing this game, my friend let me make an alt on his account which eventually led me to getting my own copy of the game. However, I deleted the char on his account when I got my own and it’s still locked to this day.

How long till I can reuse that name on my own account?

When I wanted to use a name that I knew was taken, I had to wait 24 hours to use it once it was deleted. That was all. Are you beyond the 24 hours time?

I’m on the 1 month and counting time. I guess someone else slipped in and took the name then :/

Ah, that’s too bad. When I began playing at launch, I had this terrific character in mind for my main. I spent like an hour tweaking her looks and history, got to the naming screen and was told the name I’d chosen (we’re talking first and last name here) was already taken. I was so bummed.

Just two months ago, on a whim, I tried to make a character with that name and (amazing!) it was no longer in use. So, having my heart set on having my originial main, I immediately made my character and leveled her up and she’s now (at last!) my main. lol

I know a little at least how ya feel. Maybe you will find the same luck I did in the future.
