Guild Wars 2

“Shortly after launch, we’ll free up all the unclaimed names for new Guild Wars 2 players to use.”

How shortly will it be?

My characters names were almost all taken by the time I got the game, which was 2 days after release. And yes, they had been reserved.

Been trying to use a name I made on my banned GW1 account, Just tried today and it still says its reserved

From my knowledge it was only saved until the 3 day headstart was over.

I have the same issue. I’m trying to use a certain name and it says it is “reserved”, when the reserves were supposed to be gone after the headstart.
