Just so you folks know, we do have definite plans to address this. Lets all get settled in and have the boards running smoothly, and this will be the next thing we address. I promise.

I'd like to go after my EU alter ego, although he hasn't logged in since '05 >: (

You are not along in this feeling, though mine is for my US counterpart - who joined the forums after I did, and only posted once, back in '05.

I am assured that they're working on it, though.


The wisdom of Shadowe: Ghostraptor: The Shadowe is wise ...; FFM: Shadowe is no longer wise. ; Techbot_Alpha: Also, what Shadowe said. It seems he is still somewhat wise ; Bull Throttle: Shadowe was unwise in this instance...; Rock_Powerfist: in this instance Shadowe is wise.; Techbot_Alpha: Shadowe is very wise *nods*; Zortel: *Quotable line about Shadowe being wise goes here.*

Same here. No activity on Inazuma_EU since '05.

Same. Joined 6 months after me and didn't make a single post...

Looked at Lasher_EU, he or she reg in 05 and was only active for one day. Woo!

There -is- no EU version of me.

Unless it's me on a long dead beta account.

>.<

Shinobu_EU joined Jan 28 2005 and apparently never did anything beyond that. Not a single post. (Although I admit they could have lurked for a long time, who knows?)

I don't know.

Ockham Not Applicable has got a nice ring to it.

Maybe not.

Nah.

or NA

My faith in the community team is... well, not really restored, as 'Generally Positive' doesn't tend to change all that much. But it's great to hear this is being looked into.

It was starting to bug me, and it doesn't even affect my handle (though I'd have to wonder what other strange person in the EU would have my exact one).

I can't find any evidence of an EU Primal either. Odd. Could be I just don't know how to search for it properly.

Thanks Ocho.

I didn't have a problem with somebody stealing my name

What I think they might do is an inactive name purge, a bit like the ones they've done for in-game names - that'd surely reduce the number of duplicate names to only a few.

Glad to hear you have faith.

Honestly though we would not have proceeded with the plans for the merge had we not carefully thought out these details well before hand. We had meetings literally months ago to work this out before we moved forward with investing in the technology to resolve the login issues.

We have a plan, it just behooves us to make sure everything else is settled down before we start sending out the assassination squads to resolve naming conflicts. Here's to hoping you all win the coin flip!

Seriously though, more details fairly soon.

I thought it was no holds barred mud-wrestling to decide name disputes? Or was it just too difficult to find a neutral mud-wrestling venue in the middle of the Atlantic?

The only way to solve this is THUNDERDOME!

Also unaffected (I renamed my US forum handle (which I only used twice back in 2004) to something like SHJDH*£NJSND just before the forums went down).

Glad to see it's a temporary fix though.

The idea of bloodsports to solve the issue deserves more merit...

Actually now that I look.... it almost happened to me. Just before the forums went down I altered my name, there was another Mortis..... also with 0 posts, didnt bother to check when they registered though.
