Trion Worlds is reminding players that they have until midnight January 31st to reclaim names of characters they may not have logged into for awhile. This is effective for all games in the company's portfolio. Characters will not be deleted, but players will be prompted to provide a new name on logging in.

    Crap tactic to make people log back into your crap games. Crap company. Go home Trion, you're drunk.

    Crap tactic for you, friend. I am currently logged in simultaneously in all of Trion's games trying to keep my XxLegobass123xX nickname.

    No clue about the game, but not a bad policy especially for some of the older games. Wouldn't hurt to free up names of characters not played in years.

    Trion needs to be spring cleaned out of existence.

    Honestly no. Maybe for users who haven't put a dime into the game. But if you have financially put something in the game or have bought it; you should have the right to keep whatever name you chose for yourself. I argued this when Trove first did a name purge and I thought it was a scummy tactic. Imagine being someone who is actively deployed across seas for whatever profession, be it military or not and doesn't have access to the game during their deployment? They get back and their name is gone? No. 1 year inactivity does not warrant a name purge. Sure; if the user has been inactive for 5+ years; I can understand. It's clear that user isn't going to be returning. At least not anytime soon. But 1 year is absolutely too short for a name purge. Specially against people who have paid something towards the game.
