[Massivegee]

i was going to login to my really old accounts to check stats and stuff.

and when i logged in i got to choose a new name..

That's weird, it shows that you've completed the tasks on how to train and level.. But it looks like you're account got reset?

 

[Massivegee]

well havnt logged in on this account since 2005 :s

 

[glenquag]

Same thing happened to me except the account had actually been played on.

 

[Massivegee]

i had some stats on the account

 

[Massivegee]

 

[Bag]

Oh wow, so the stats probably stay but the name gets deleted...

 

[Massivegee]

had some old friends added to ;o

Someone took your name since you were inactive.

Yeah happened to me too, on two accounts i made during the Aryan era, guessing they free up names of noob accounts that haven't been played in X time.

 

[KingCrackerJacks]

they made me change a multispaced name and a 3 letter name on a level 3

 

[TahBreezy]

That's quite strange. What did you change your name to? Was it like a rare name you had before?

 

[Pockets]

I have a six-spaced name but it's still fine

 

[Eazy Mac]

you had to change your name cuz someone picked your name as their display name. jagex let people do this on accs that werent loggd in for over a year.

 

[Simplose]

Yeah this happened to a level 3 i recovered from 07 that I abandoned.

 

[Cripple pker]

Somewhere in the updates on rs it says accounts that have not been played on for a certain ammount of time will get name resets so others can use it, looks like this happened

 

[Determinate]

Your name was freed up as a display name.

You still get to pick a new one.

 

[Massivegee]

That's quite strange. What did you change your name to? Was it like a rare name you had before?

wasnt a rare name.

 

[Pure nitros]
