As long as the easiest way to gain influence (by simply letting members of a guild log them in) is faulty, I am not going to buy any influence via guild promoter or laurel vendor. And as long I am not going to buy the guild missions either, because there is no way for small guilds to win something out of it.
Today it is 6 months since I’m checking the log in influence gathering. So far I only received about 1/3rd about what would be due to us. I’ve lost 14,980 points exactly from September 1st to February 28th. Lowest points last week have been 3 of 20 characters being awarded.
Just repair it or tell HOW we have to act in game in order to get it. I’ve got no clue on what is causing it.
Not possible now.
- The Display name can only be changed via support with a valid reason (for example security).
- The character name shall be available for change via the Black Lion Trading Company somewhere in the future.
Sending gold should be no problem, but if you are not sure, why not ask support. There you could mention the 2 accounts involved and you might get a waiver for such an transaction.
There are some limits ingame, but I guess a character who has 100 gold has no more limits active.
It’s the special event letters that are private mails which are not counted on the private counter.
Don’t worry about heart letters or letters for completing the map or for raising in level – those are system letters, which have an yet unknown limit.
One thing people are forgetting – if you delete your characters, you are also deleting the bank. So, anything you had put into the bank, including coin, would be lost when the characters are deleted.
You should have read the entire thread. I referred to players who have done so already and who have kept their bank.
Your statement is wrong!
If the 2 accounts (GW1 & GW2) are linked, the change will work for both accounts.
If you feel unsecure, just look into the security information provided in the stickies above:
- Brian’s article
- two-way authentization
That problem is known and it is worked on. According to the message that was given when the error was shown the first time on the forum.
If the other names are not flagged for a rename, I would not play them and I would ask support to get a chance of doing a rename. That way YOU are the one telling them the names and you won’t get a suspension for it. I guess that should work well.

Another borderline experiment or explanation?
One key = one action.
That is the key to it. If one key means 2 actions it is wrong. It does not matter, if this is 2 actions by one character or single actions on 2 accounts. It’s just more than there is in that sentence. What’s so difficult to understand it?
That’s it. Only the soulbound items would be lost, because you cannot get it to wear on other characters.
I dont have the Key i think
Do i have to search it or can i look them up?
Becouse I have access to my account but cant reset passwort…
Also i cant change it it still says your password is shorter than 8 letters.
Even if I type auzgfbaleriuhlasghialirghlaerig it still says that
Write a support ticket. They will be able to help.
That won’t work. The account stays. But if you delete your characters and put your valuables in the bank, you might change servers for free. Although that is bad (because of the deleted characters), it is not as bad as what you were planning to do.
There have been several reports of players on this forum, who have changed the servers that way and kept their bank at the same time.
Only the things connected with a guild will be lost, because that is server bound.

… “…If you Press A and it casts multiple spells, you’re not ok.”
Are you trying to split some hairs or are you not reading. One key = one action.
One key starting several actions over a period of time is not fitting that description.
Check your mailbox. It may be that you won’t receive letters because your private mailbox has 10/10 letters already. If that is not true, check on those special event letters. They fill the mailbox without showing on the private counter.
That is why I said, I would try to get my bad name cleared again. As I said several times, I don’t see anything bad in it. But my opinion or knowledge doesn’t cover the world. I’m just a small human being. Thus I try to be neutral and I try to see the best in anyone.
That said, I hope anything gets checked and if there is no insult, there should be left no fog of war on a normal player. I wish you the best.

write a support ticket
No, an account that is banned can only be unbanned via support. So go to support. But support cannot change the guild leader (or at least they are not doing it).
Sorry, you are wrong again, he did his own search and pointed me to it. I just answered thank you, because I did my own research. I never linked to my resarch, that was the other poster.
You seem to get mixed up here.
And we are here with Anet’s place. We promised to follow the rules. So, the facts don’t mean nothing. If Anet thinks that they have enough evidence, that is the end of the line.
Discussion not necessary and according to Anet rules not allowed too.
I’ve checked the information myself. Thank you.
What information did you check? And what are your references? If your references are urban dictionary, please stop right there; because that is not a source of credible information.
I googled the name and I checked almost 10 different sites. Google is not necessarily the promoter of all wisdom or the truth, but I guess that I didn’t miss out on many good sources. Among them at least 5 dictionaries (not necessary the urban ones, but some with a better name).
I’m googling the name and can’t find any credible websites that promote your statement. Not only that, but even if you were right, there still has to be a context to suggest what you are saying. Right there your whole argument falls apart. I’m sorry, but I’m not convinced.
Sorry, but I don’t need you to accept or verify my searches and my knowledge.
Additionally, you are fighting against the wrong person here. I defend the right of Anet to make decisions on names.
I am only accepting that there might be outside sources that are saying the name is NO problem. Which does not change anything about the rights of Anet to make decisions about it.
I’m just trying to see both sides.
The achievements for the Hall of Monuments are account bound. So if you have another character without those special letters, try him instead.

That is why I recommended a restoration. Within a restoration I would request the server change back to the original server too. At the same time it would remove all ill begotten wealth on your account.
Checking and improving on security would be my foremost task, if I would be wearing your shoes. Therefore alone I would contact support.
I’ve checked the information myself. Thank you.
But that I or you are not able to find something, doesn’t mean there isn’t anything.
Anyway, the forum is the wrong place to do so. A ticket with support would be best. But then, why should I stick to a name, if I’m told to change. I’m out of the western cultural heritage, but I don’t know what other cultures have on rules. I’m bound to believe some person who decides.
Personally I try to avoid those problems, but who knows, somebody might point one of my toons to Anet. I don’t think that to be happening, but if it does, I’m not going to discuss it. I will change and I will continue playing. The only thing I might try is to remove some bad marks, because I did not do anything on purpose. But even here I will ask only once, if they don’t accept it, it would not bother me anymore.
There is more important things to worry about.
Write a ticket to support. And check if you want a restoration of your account.
Getting in touch with support is necessary, because if you were referred to them as a botter, you have to make sure to them, that this was not you.
That somebody don’t know about some special meaning, does not mean it does not exist. And pointing into other areas where that name would be accepted, don’t prove anything too.
BTW pointing to worse samples is useless as well.
Point is: somebody complained. Anet checked and found some reason. Anet had to react, because they said they would act in their legal papers.
Result: name is to be changed, discussion is to be ended.
Threads don’t answer tickets. You can enter your ticket in the “tickets older than 3 days” sticky thread when that time comes. Any other entry on the forum will not get you any further.
Then people can get banned for any name. There will always be haters in this world, and the chance somebody will agree.
Yes, that is a problem for international games. They have to be more careful than might be necessary. But that is not only Anet’s fault, if anybody feels wounded he runs to a lawyer the next second. That might get expensive if you are not restrictive.
No you cannot. You had your shot, you did not well, so Anet made an anagram. Anet are the only ones to change display names currently.
No. GW1 is connected to NCSoft account, but GW2 is not.
Do you get to keep coins and other items stored in your personal bank if all your characters are deleted?
It was said so. But there is a thread asking just that now. No need to tuck it up to a different thread.
If he has a ticket number, post that in the special thread for “tickets older than 3 days”, add some information and ask for review.
If he has no ticket: hurry up to write one. He don’t need an account to do so, just a working email. See “support” at the top of this page and procede with “ask a question”. See the stickies for information about what to write.
I didn’t try that, but it was a statement on this forum, that the bank continues.
If in doubt, find somebody reliable and mail the most important stuff there, for getting it remailed after the change.
Have you checked your mailbox. It is counting as a private letter. If you have 10/10 private letters, you will not be able to receive one until you delete some.
BTW Special event letters count as private letters but don’t show on the private counter. So check for that too. (Hearts letters or exploration letters are system messages. There is no problem with that.)
I do agree that the OP should have been given a chance to change the name himself or atleast pick his own. Names in online games are a very personnal thing to many players and should not be taken lightly by the devs.
He has that right. His display name cannot be changed by him, so it has to be changed by support.
sorry for posting on this issue that late, but me and my Guild Leader playing around with this issue over a week now. I am in a different world and learned that this would give me no access. Now i was told if i join in his world and got permissions it should work, but it doesnt. Do i have to move to his world to get access to our Guild Vault?
yes – guesting won’t work.
On your security page within your account on this page, you can see the accepted IP ranges for access to website or game. If there is any range, that sounds unfamiliar you can delete it there and thus deny access from this ranges. Be careful! Usually you are entering via an IP range. On one day you get IP “XY” while your provider gives you “YX” the very next date. So there is always a range. And the place of origin is not your location but a city that might be close to your place. But close can be several hundred miles from your place too. Only if it is from foreign places I would delete them immediately.
BTW In the past Anet had a bug that allowed themselves to be in the “allowed” IPs as well. So don’t worry if you see the US in the list. In such a case I would ask support to check and remove it.
Some special event letters fill up the private mailbox too (without showing it on the private counter). Take care on that as well, don’t look at the counter alone.
What about you have unique emails AND unique passwords. There are many email providers that offer to produce many alias email adresses.
BTW That email account has a unique password as well.
If you have problems remembering all those data (I have too), I show you my perfect password manager: a piece of paper and a pencil.
That should not be left on the table, if you are not living alone (but that is a different kind of security).
Seems so. I would at least as change the password. If that won’t work, ask support to do it. And look in your profile on this page under “security” and remove the IP ranges from China, if there are any.
I suggest you read some of that http://www.guildwars2.com/en/legal
As you mentioned your previous name, it seems clear why somebody reported it and why Anet had to act.
For the rest of your suggestions, I suggest to post it as suggestions.
No – has been asked and answered begore.
The achievement needs to be done in ONE session on ONE map. If you cannot do that, the next attempt starts with zero again.
It’s no bug. It is intended that way. They don’t want to have people map out of danger.
Update your first ticket if possible. If that is not possible, mark in the second ticket that it is a different incident and refer to the ticket that got solved.
If this is not working – after 3 days – you will be able to put the ticket number in the “tickets older than 3 days” sticky thread.
In the meantime I would post the second ticket number in this thread. Gaile is looking into this threads very often, so she just might pick up the ticket number to do some spinning on it of her own.
Good luck!
Depends!? I’m running 2 accounts. Most GUI options are saved on the PC, because I have the same in both accounts. But there may be some more server related which would be saved on the server. I just don’t know which.
…Edit: just thought of something…maybe ArenaNet specifically wants to track gold transfers via the Trading Post to keep tabs on gold sellers.
Gold sellers won’t transfer there money via TP. Because they know that this IS logged and because of the taxes. Anet knows that too. Goldsellers are caught on other places and chief among them would be the mail system.
One more reason NOT to trade that way.
You don’t need a support account to make a ticket. Just go ahead and use the email you like. The answers will be send to your email and you can update the ticket via email too.
Just make sure to check your spam folders. Some service providers think that the Anet mail address might produce junk.
not here – ask support
As you did that already, that seems to be the end of the line.
If there is no reason why the laurels should be gone, you should write a support ticket in order to get it checked and (if possible) replaced.
If it is just an influence problem, I have one myself (which is why I am looking here), but I posted it in a special guild problems sticky. That is the place designed for by Anet people.
If “somebody” cleared out a guild bank, that is not part of Anet’s job to get it repaired.
If there is some technical bug (which is not guild related – as explained in the existing sticky), it should be reported and worked on separate from the guild sticky.
Just my opinion.
PS I don’t see on this page http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Influence#Acquisition that the guild promoter is offering consumables. So I stick to my opinion. It does not seem to be a bug. I always thought, that if I spend the amount there, I would work directly. Anet is not responsible for people assuming otherwise.
And the rest of the topic was answered by me as well. When there is ANY problem write a ticket.
