Name taken... enough already

The way they described btags would be that they would be publicly displayed.
So it would be WAY more than friending a specific character.

ROFL no it’s not. Nobody can be your bnet friend without you clicking accept.

Again, I can add all your characters I can find on websites that track that kind of stuff and add them to my friend’s list without your consent or knowledge.

Good fix, good fix.

@Tovi-moon-guard

Your original statement was you didn’t want your bnet seen because you didn’t want anyone adding you and following you around. That makes zero sense because nobody can add you unless you let them.

So nothing I said was wrong.

I was replying to a comment, not op. So you are, in fact wrong as it was a hypothetical. Not how current btag works.

[Tovi-moon-guard (Tovi)]

You said btags were a mistake for the following reasons. That’s not a hypothetical situation.

Whatevs.

So, can we just change this “rule” to be if they haven’t logged in to the character in 12 months the name becomes available, or something like that?

Better solution. Let players pick a surname.

You want to be Tom? Okay, you can be Tom Black, Tom Brookland, Tom Greenfield, Tome Stonehearth, etc…

In reply to a hypothetical. Are you intentionally being obtuse?
How many times do I need to say it was a hypothetical response to a hypothetical comment?

You are acting like it was in reply to how CURRENT btags work. Which is why I asked why you interjected yourself when you have no idea what is going on xD

So yes, again. You are wrong. You commented on something you had no idea the context. And for whatever reason, you are doubling down on me being wrong.

Tbh I hate when games force the surname thing. I’d rather just be allowed to have a space, hyphen, or something. That would allow more freedom and naming options.

I wanna say “Just give us last names” cause that solves the problem, but I don’t know anything about the actual hell of coding that would be to change after nearly 20 years of this games existence.
