Since many people have their multi names saved on solo so people can't impersonate them, this could cause problems if i apply the normal monthly wipeout of crits that haven't been played in the past 2-3 months.

Possible solutions:

1) I could set the timeout to 6 months instead on NM Solo (my personal fav)
2) I could just not run inactive clearouts on NM Solo - problem there is that there will be loads of crappy characters on the system that people can't be bothered to delete.
3) ?

Thoughts/comments, atm, i'm going with the 6 month clearout, which means nothing will be deleted until october time.

I vote keep it the same.

On multi you can delete inactive crits and someone takes the names, applies it on a level 20+ and they then have all rights to that name and theoretically could impersonate somebody.

I think if you don't play 1a, you have no right to hold onto the name.

Just emma's view.

I would say lets move it to 6 months.

This way we wipe old names over time; ones that are not actually being used.
By then, it's been long enough that players should know who is who for the most part. We can support banning players who are claiming to be someone from Old NM that they are not, though having to give out your identity should definately not be pushed at all.

I don't see any reason to permanently keep so many good names locked up without any use...it is not right.

We should obviously make sure that no staff or former staff names can be registered though.

I agree with the 6 months one, sorry Emma <3


For reasons stated.

Can the rule not be split?
Name holders (lvl 20 and below) are deleted at the same time as the multi server, whereas characters over level 20 get 6months?

That would be very nice.

Supported or 6 months.
