All I know, is that if I don't get my name back, I'm quitting.
I play this game because it's by BioWare, not because I like Star Wars very much. And, not getting to keep my name (which I've used for 8 years now, on many different games) after numerous transfers, is a deal breaker for me.
Unfortunately, my husband and I just re-subscribed for another 6 months last month. He also is being told that he has to change his names. Even he, who loves Star Wars, is getting ticked off.
Both of us have CE's, both of us have been playing since hour one, of day one, of early release. We pay six months in advance for 2 accounts. Yet, somehow, it's OUR names that get taken away.
