Name change due to trolling?

#0 - Oct. 1, 2010, 12:19 a.m.

Basically, a server/faction transfer has shown up on my server, and has chosen a name that is off of my mains name and what I am known as by a single ASCII character (Bank alt since posting as my main would be a give-away). I wouldn't care except that they have turned out to be a /2 Trade troll and their rep has been noted even by my guild members who think it is me. They are not impersonating me or anything that I am aware of, just chose a name that they wanted that looked like mine.

They haven't done anything actionable, they are just being an annoying jerk, but I am wondering if having a name change on my main/ high level alt would be possible due to this or am I on the hook for paying for a possible name change? At this rate I am going to be unable to pug if they keep this up.

Thanks

Unfortunately, Lirindra, if they are not actually doing anything against our policies there is little we could do. I'm afraid we are not usually able to offer a free character name changes in such situations. :(

If you wish to opt for a name change to avoid possible association with the other you'll need to take advantage of the Paid Name Change service. I'm sorry that I could not offer a better solution.
