Hi.

I've recently seen some names being deleted that have been for sale on here. None of my names have ever been deleted until today. Three of my names have been deleted, they weren't the best names but they still got deleted. I've registered those three names around 3 weeks ago, my other names haven't been touched. My newer names have been on blank username accounts, accounts that have been forced name changed so I could avoid the email registration.

I'm pretty sure that there are some people watching Name Sales and reporting the names to Jagex in some way. I think the main reason has been this thread.

Here is the thread on the official rs forums

It currently has 79 pages of replies.

Is there anyone with more information?

None other than the OP of that thread being a fag. He's complaining about name hoarders when he is crap at taking 1 in 50 Million of those names being released. This deletion has happened to me weeks ago. It's part of Jagex' plan of releasing 90M names, INCLUDING RWTed names on here. One scary fact to confirm deletion is to find any big shop(Articx for example) and keep adding the names. You can also log in one at a time to check. That's why it's important to get used to PMing people.
Agree. I think one of the funny things is that he has a 2 letter name himself while he is complaining about name hoarders.

Correct. "Lp" is also an RWTed name, as it has been sold by Cupraka on here in 2011. I've looked at Fertilize's name shop and quite a few have been deleted as well, such as Re,Dryer,Drier, and many more. I already warned Artic about this but he is still skeptical about it. He'll finally believe it when it hits him.
What a hypocrite. It won't even surprise me if he is actually on Sythe himself.
Found his thread. http://www.sythe.org/showthread.php?t=1003855

I used to have my full list posted on here. When it was posted, I literally lost around 8-10 names no exaggeration. Two of which were names that I already sold and had to give 140M refund on because it was my responsibility that I still had sold names posted. Fuckin' sucks man. That's why my list is no longer publicized.

And as for deleting hoarded names, without valid proof of a visual thread they shouldn't be allowed to pose a ban (Therefore if you're only private messaging you're lists then name selling should still be fairly secure). When the two sold names were removed the owners weren't provided with any reasoning nor were the owners able to appeal or anything, just poof and gone.
 
a few of my pvt name has also been deled got a email saying so havent checked whichs 1s though 2 lazy
 
omfg when a name gets deleted does it get freed up again?

In some cases. I think it depends on how long you've owned the name for. If you've had it for months and a thread gets found which deems it as [SOLD]. Jagex technically can take action against you and remove your name as you are a potential risk of RWT. If you get the name removed after having it for a while it'l get put into the same category where banned names go, and it wont be "freed" until a random time.

P.S This thread is starting to seem like it's starting to put ideas into some peoples heads. >_<
 
Personally I think this lp guy is someone who is jealous of some of the names people own. I think he's hoping that names will get released so he can add them to his own collection.
 
Tbh, the names do not get freed instantly. Jagex investigates the actual accounts before taking action. It's very easy to get blacklisted if you have been buying/selling on here for awhile. While it may be nice to have a Mod post saying the names are all verified, it makes your names more prone to deletion. I learned it the hard way, so now I only sell names through Msn or Skype.

No wonder some people on here have been selling through msn and skype nowadays, they are not even posting on the threads anymore

This^ I BET he got like 20 UBER RARE names lol, I'm pretty sure LOL.
I think he's just jealous though..
 
If Jagex is really targeting hoarders I think we should create a thread like Ritchy's request a name- but it lists all names that have been deleted and have been taken already- wouldn't cause any harm if you only post when they have been taken.

Would help see if this is a big deal or not

Lmao Jagex wont free up the rare names. They never do like they only did that like once. but since almost all the names are active or have been logged in once since 2007. they wont do it. the inactive names they wanna delete are like Mager001 or stupid shit made like in 2003-04

You're right in a way however extremely rare names were released early last year as some of my friends own them and will not sell due to the bills they are in value.

Those most likely display names. Like legit actual accounts with login name as a rare name aren't deleted. I got a hold of the name "o_o" and it was last logged in in 2004. Not deleted. jagex is prolly more game towards cleaning display names. you kno the accounts that say "Last Known As"

EDIT: That's why "B" got lost due to the owner left it as "Last Known As" and Jagex deleted it off him.
