Ok clarification,
You can’t get a name even if it’s inactive.
Ergo,
You will not get it tomorrow or 5 years from now. So by that, I’m saying they tell you that you don’t get it. Not that verbatim is what my original comment is word for word…
I’m using critical thinking that it does not state “can’t get inactive names until after x amount of time” it says you can’t get them even if it’s inactive. PERIOD.
By all means you guys can’t debate this and wait for years to try for a name idc I’m trying to show you it’s not gonna happen but have it
You’ve made an incorrect assumption here.
This is the original wording from the support article of how name releases work:
I mean it can, but the odds are slim. You have to roll a critical success a few times in a row.
The odds of an account being completely inactive for the duration required is pretty small. Especially for the exact name you want.
Exactly. The name/character may not ever be played, but the Bnet account is active… they keep the name.
They do. My name became available just a few months ago on my server.
They do its 2 expansions of no log ins, so keep checking
Thank you for the clarification. 
Let’s also throw Name Changes on Barbershop!
