DPLogin Name Deletion Time

[Cameron]

i think its fine atm - if anything the time should be made longer rather than lower.

Wtf?  Next time up will probably 64 days, want to wait 2 months to delete "iamanidiot" if you registered it for fun?

[ViciouZ]

Hold the names without charge for 42 days.

there are 10 names - ur likely to hvae what, like three fun names. that leaves seven. and i dont actually mean it should be made longer what i mean is that if is going to be changed out of either lower or higher, then higher is the better option. although i personally think its fine atm.

Maybe Jits should implement a system to where is you don't use a registered name in a given period of time, it expires and goes back in to the name pool......

^^unless people register it to protect their name and don't plan on using some of the registered ones, like yootz, y()()tz, y00tz

agreed - im doing that too. i mean my names not well known but protection must be in place !! but if someone makes a name
say jitspoee to copy jitspoe it doesnt really matter cus its gonna look different firstly. and it doesnt really matter that much..

(what Justin said).

[theSYNDIKATE]

It's not that big a deal, but it would be nice if it was lowered, but only to the point where people can't abuse it.

20 days, perhaps?

[eradicator]

I vote minimum 32 days.

[Monst3r]

i think it should b 7    : )))))

[CoffeeBeans]

Crap, using up 10 names in a month? you either are really nutty or you need to really start thinking your names out instead of being so obsessive compulsive. That is a name every 3 days, how can you get much enjoyment out of a name if you only use it for 3 or less days? The only thing i can think a person would be doing with that many name changes is going into games making obnoxious names and causing problems. Find a name, use it, protect it. I really don't even see why we need 10? why not 5.. I say the current rules are lenient enough why make it more so?

[i_am_a_pirate]

Personally, I need at least 10 to protect my name!

iamapirate
i_am_a_pirate
1amapirate
1amp1rate
1_am_a_p1rate
1_am_a_pirate
iamap1rate
i_am_a_p1rate
iamapir4te
i_am_a_pir4te
1amapir4te
iamapir@te
plus all the clan versions (>>AERO<<iamapirate, etc.)

the list goes on...


back on topic: Just put the warning on when they add a name that their name will be on for 32 days until you can delete it...

Uhm... No you don't?

When you register a new name using characters such as "_" and "@" It won't read them.

For example:
iamapirate AND i_am_a_pirate are the same exact thing when you register it like that, am I correct?
It won't read the characters. It only reads numbers and letters.

Also, I think, The way it's setup right now is just fine.

[Garrett]

Capo, you are correct.  Pirate, no one wants to spoof your name. 

[i_am_a_pirate]

[Bix]

Should be 15 days

[Zorchenhimer]

How about this.  Start at, say, 14 days.  Then add a week to that every month till you eventually disable deleting names.  And when people come to you whining about changing their name, just say "no". 

[Eiii]

Dupe accounts would go through the roof. I'm fine with the current waiting time.
