We are almost a week away from freeing up millions of character names! Remember, on Thursday, October 15, we will be changing the names of characters on inactive accounts, making the names once again available for use!

All characters under Lv. 200 on accounts that have not been logged in since January 1, 2013 will have their names changed to a combination of numerals. This change will be performed in the scheduled maintenance on October 15.

By changing these names to numerals, the original names will once again be available for use. To coincide with this, we will be having a free name change event from October 15 through October 21. After the maintenance on October 15, all players will be able to request a free name change for one character per world on their account through the event notifier on the left side of the game window. All of the free name changes will be processed in the scheduled maintenance on October 22.

Please be aware that anyone caught trying to sell their character name will be subject to a 14-day ban for the duration of the event.
