Hi,

Mark Gerhard (CEO) pointed out Jagex are working on a way to allow us to change our RUnescape names.

Could this mean that if say someone owned the name 'Pink' and was trying to sell the NAME (not the account) they could simply change the accounts name to something else and allow the buyer to change their name to Pink?

Not sure, it may cost a fraction more - but it's definatly more secure as it's YOUR account with the new name.
 
It's true that they're working on it, but they said it's going to be more like a Display name and not entirely changing your name.

* Name Changing - Mod MMG has confirmed they are working on a new system which allows Name Changing! We will be able to have our own display names. They are also allowing longer names with special characters. It will benefit us from hijackers, and will offer us a cool new name. :)

lol ima try to use the name Defil3d or osmething, ill also change my obby maulers gay name >.>
 
When and if it comes out ppl will start getting all the display names they can. To the point where none will be available, just like rare names today and i doubt jagex will allow ppl to walk with same names.
 
I think it is a screen name only
Your login is the same, but the screen name is different... and anyone can have the same screen name so you can put your rl name in it
 
It won't protect from hijackers, they will still login with their real name. Just like they will on Runescape.
 
there will probably be a flaw somewhere in this... there always is when they decide to make something to "improve" the game.
 
What I dont see is why jägex feeds into retarded suggestions that are useless (like name changing) and not into the mass majority of new pvp/old wildy. Like the bounty hunter subject, they remove it and instead of working on it they decide to allow users to change their names? Pfft. Jagex can't solve any problems about real rs so they decide to stall important updates (such as bh) and release ideas about useless crap.
I dont think this update will even happen. It seems like a horrible idea. If something doesn't happen it can't affect the name market. ^^
 
My main's username is so fucked up, pisses me off!!

Cant wait till that update comes!!!
 
Can't wait for that...

I wanna swap names between two of my accounts. I have a crappy account with an amazing name, and a great account with an awful name. Even if it's just display names, that's still great.

They do what it takes to please RuneScape users WHILE doing the best they can to keep the game free of RWT.

If you have any ideas on how to bring old wildy back while keeping RWT out of it then by all means, tell us. Otherwise quit crying about it. It's not as easy as a brain storming session.

Name changing is a highly wanted update, personally I would love it. Up with name changing, down with wildy.
 
they're going to change your name when you gets banned for a offencive name probly.. you can't just change a name or else u could hack someone easly.
 
I won't believe it until I actual see it coming from someone from Jagex.
