I would like to suggest that please remove the free changing of names in game? Cuz what is the purposed having a name really if u can just changed it anyway? Also how can we report someone who used hacks/cheats in game when they can changed there name anytime? Btw for those who doesnt know how to changed the 1st named of you char just go press F1 and you will see an icon like this ! besides your name and then you can changed your name anytime you want. . Also please do it with the Lodge names too they can be freely changed either.

If this is intended to remain after launch, i totally agree. If someone wants to erase his shitty past actions, at least make them level up again.
That’s why im suggesting this cuz its beta. So things can be changed pretty soon. lolx
Yeah, agreed! It would be a good idea if they were to remove this feature after the closed beta or it’ll just be troublesome later on if there are players that need to be reported.
Changing the first name is irrelevant since it is not unique, and I think that feature should stay. Changing your lodge name should either not exist, or be a payed feature for the very reason you gave.

if this is going to be release on steam… that doesn’t matter LOL… coz your account on TOS is link to your steam… do something that violates steam terms and conditions and your whole STEAM is gone… … everything. not just your TOS account.
This is why when I saw somebody on Dota2 who are impersonating a well known gamer… I report his steam account not his Dota2 account.

your lodge isn’t really your account. Steam gives the client those details, and I’m sure if IMC wanted to find a hacker or a cheater they’d use that as reference for report submissions instead of their lodge/character system that they purposely made changeable. (Purposely as in, they went to the effort of letting you change it yourself manually, without hacking)

I think the deal with unchangeable name is not just for terms of service violation, but mainly for allowed interaction behavior. This is basic RPG 101.
Unfortunately this name change practice is common nowadays.
I like it the way it is. Often one of the hardest things in an MMO for some people is coming up with a name.
They could just add something to the character tab that shows previous names. Steam has both these features with the addition of being able to assign your own personal nicknames to friends to keep track of who is who and works quite nicely.
Also, making it cost something won’t really change much. It’s a pain in the ass on XBL where someone will spend 10USD every week to change their gamertag to something stupid and not notify the 98 people on his friends list who are wondering who the hell this guys is. I know so many people that do this so it’s not like I don’t understand where you’re coming from.
