Hello,
I was thinking of purchasing a name changer for 15k nx.

However I've heard rumours that if you delete an old character with a certain name, you cannot rename your other character with the deleted characters name.
Is this true? I dont want to waste 15knx only to find out I cannot change my name.

Thank you.

    I was told by a Customer Support GM that it's due to a "lock" being placed on IGN's created before a certain time, and was then told that if the IGN existed on GMS before the lock (even if you created it on Luna before the lock) that the IGN cannot be re-used until this "lock" is lifted.

    They also told me a public announcement would be made about this.

    I'm the only person out of dozens I know have asked who have had any answer, and even then, it doesn't help things very much. An official statement from Nexon would be nice.

    I have many IGN's I'd like to change.

    @Calwyn I made the [now] deleted character about a year ago, on europe.
    I never played it so i thought i'd delete it and use the name on my main.

    Do you think maybe its smart if i didnt bother name changing right now?
    Thank you for your answers.
