Is there anyway to receive a Rename Token in game?

No. They must be purchased.

I'm actually transferring a character to a different server.

I have two characters with the same name on two servers. One old and one new.

I want to transfer the new one to the old ones server.

So I have to delete the old one before I transfer the new one...so that I can use that name.

However, I'm worried about that window after I delete the old one and before I transfer the new one.

it shouldnt take that long, when i21 came out i deleted a toon then near instantly remade them with the same name

if you really are worried about it, delete, log in with diff toon, run 1 mish, then do the transfer

I was able to delete and transfer characters with the same name no problem earlier.

I know it's possible.

My concern lies with the fact that someone can potentially create a character with that name during the "window".


Anyways...not much else I can do but risk it without a rename token.

That's the risk we all run. Just try to be quick.

Actually, if you transfer a character to a server that has a character with that name on it already, you should get a free rename token.

It's not the names (either of them) that I'm worried about. I'm creative. It's the part where I can't self-invite/promote myself with the SG, which I would lose if I went the server xfer route.

If you don't mind investing $5 in that, just create a Premium account and you'll be able to use that to invite and promote yourself.

Would you not have the same issue with renaming too? You'd have to rename the original toon before you transfered the other one over. You may as well just delete it anyway.

It's my impression that cost is primarily intended to be a deterrent, as the name-change process is manual and they don't want thousands of requests flooding the staff.

Used to be manual, and the normal "free" (GM) version still is. THe Bought/server transfer version is automated, however.
