Do you know that they're characters created on Exalted, rather than transferred?

'I don't like the look of it at all,' said the King: 'however, it may kiss my hand if it likes.'
'I'd rather not,' the Cat remarked.
'Don't be impertinent,' said the King, 'and don't look at me like that!' He got behind Alice as he spoke.
'A cat may look at a king,' said Alice.
I don't see many people transferring level 5 alts in.
I had always assumed that everyone knew that to get a free rename you make an alt on the destination server with the same name, then transfer the alt in for the free rename token.
pohsyb: so of all people you must be most excited about the veats
Arachnos Commander: actually, I am

If you're curious, take some of the names with un-necessary punctuation and check the "normal" versions.

Actually. it makes MORE sense to me to see names in this form on this server.
Allow me to explain.
Player 1 has been playing "Superman" since day one. He has invested alot of time in the character, and even brings the character out when there is a new patch or end game content.
Now with the new server, he tries to create "Superman" once more, except now he is competing with Players 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 (you get my point). Oh sure, he can name HIS character "Superguy" or "Superdude", but lets face it. It isn't the same.
Hence, "Superman." is born.
In my case, i have seen a lot of the most wanted one word names around Atlas Park and other low level areas. I have seen periods and apostrophes on names that are not trademarks, for example: Hades but still is on the blocked list, so the player needed to use a period so he can create Hades.
Another good point is like Dinah Might has already mention, there is a lot of competition for certain popular names.
I have saw a lot of those popular names already taken but not in action. Some players are using them as place holders, other players are hiding their global, because they don' want other players to inquire if they can buy or trade their names.
Still i have seen a couple of names that are not taken but that's not gonna be for so long, because i have seen a good population on Exalted and for now this will continue for a good time.
We have to wait until Freedom becomes free to play.
