    Its NCsoft, what did you expect?

    ... and if you're new to this company, if you want to farm and sell gold, be sure to have a GM contract to share profits with, or you get banned.

    I don't think this should even be discussed lol.

    Are you saying GMs and employees aren't allowed to play their own game?

    And if so, they can't use names that they want?

    That's pretty selfish.
    so if you paid $200 for the 4 day headstart to reserve your name "OhhPaigey". you would be fine knowing that a gm reserved it 2 weeks before?
    If I paid $200 to reserve a name I'd have to seriously consider shooting myself.

    because naming your character kirito is going to make you a better player anyway... imo focus on your gameplay and worry about naming your character after popular anime later, it's dumb to cry over spilt milk.

    Agree, because you couldn't possibly have bought the $75 pack to get the name reserve... you clearly bought the most expensive pack JUST for the name reserve.

    the logic here is ridiculous like, i'm actually all for it.. good on the GMs power to you.. the amount of shit you're going to have to deal with for however many years to come you deserve something small like the name kirito or naruto or saber...

    honestly this just comes down to a case of people needing something to complain about, same with the "censorship" of the game... people can't just enjoy anything anymore and there clearly is no originality left when people can't even come up with their own character names and have to be the cool kid stealing names from anime.

    Wish GM's would do that more often, and take names like "bob" i hate bob :angry:
    Trust me you dont wanna know what happens when i see a "bob" (or a name like DMkano) walking around in a game with PVP.
    I just know he (DMKano) is walking around in Devilian but i WILL find his alias he cant HIDE...
    (i just pwn every evoker i see one of them has to be IT)

    Can't you get a refund if you now don't want the perk package with reserving names?
  • HarikenHariken Member EpicPosts: 2,680
    This topic is so funny to me. Because i use unique rare names in the first place. I rarely have problems with name choices. Go find something unique at babynames.com or any site like that. They have names from every place on earth. I have a list of names that i never fail to be able to use.

    Sure, if you're a petulant child.

    Not to be contrary but how many GMs could there possibly be and why shouldn't there be some perks for working for the company?

    ^This.

    I mean seriously, they're employees of the company.  If they want to have their character run around with massive pink cowboy hats, that's their prerogative, or moreso the companies prerogative.

    Exactly. After all, they have to deal with all the whiny kids who complain about EVERYTHING. Combat pay.

    I would like to say, I see how the GMs should get their GM names reserved. However, one GM reserving 7 names seems sketch to me. Is it the end of the world? Nah.
    Honestly, any game that still uses the outdated "one per server" concept is ridiculous. Offering to allow people to reserve a name for money, ridiculous. Having your GMs reserve more than one or maybe two names even though your playerbase is paying money to reserve names, ridiculous.

    Basically all this boils down to is someone who doesn't like NCSoft found this out and threw a fit and now everyone who doesn't like NCSoft is jumping on board.

    So everyone upset with this do the following:

    1:  Grow up
    2:  Realize there are tons of other problems in the world that need fixing before this is ever an issue
    3:  Grow up (yes I said it again)
    4:  Uninstall every game you have and never play them again you don't deserve to

    and finally

    GROW UP!
