So I changed my characters name on Classic Wrath from “y” name to “x” name.
The name updated on my character portrait, my name changed in guild. However my name above my character in game is my old name. Might not seem a big deal until you try to whisper anybody.
Radio silence because they can’t respond back. I’m whispering under my old name so that when they try to whisper back they get “No player name “y” is currently playing”
I have already deleted all my addons, ive reset the ui interface by renaming the 3 folders, ive reset the chat interface. All to no avail.
I changed another toons name too a few days ago and it worked fine.
I have opened a tech ticket, but it is saying expected response time is 11days…
So i thought id ask the community if they have any insights.
I came to the forums for this exact same issue. New name shows correctly on my character select screen and on my in-game portrait, addons prompted me for setup and/or to choose a profile on login, group invites must be sent to the new name, but the name above my head and on the character portrait group members see is still the old name.
Bumping this. I have the exact same issue and it’s been like this for over 30 hours now. Can a community manager or a blue please give an update on what is going on? This is causing confusion in my guild and groups. I can’t communicate to people in whispers in game, it’s insane.
bumping this again for a CM, GM or a blue posters to confirm. Im hoping that maybe the reset on teusday might bring order to the chaos but man it is horrid.
Just as an update my name issue appears to have resolved itself! No idea how but when i logged on last night it was all fixed. My ticket was still open so im guessing the system sorted itself out.
