    Since it's not mentioned here yet, I'll just go ahead and remind you guys that you can reserve your GW1 name in GW2, so your name won't be stolen!

    I may have to buy GW1 just to reserve my name. I have thought of a brilliant name to go with my guild name! Well, brilliant in the sense that someone else thought of it and I would probably get GW2 shut down from copyright infringement by using the name I have in mind. Stupid anti-piracy laws. Uh, apparently I went slightly off course there.

    You can reserve names? must have missed that. Unless you mean GW1, which are double names.... :x

    I hope MMO-c give us a split up forum like the wow forums, GW2 hasn't even been released and look how popular it is! I have a feeling though we are gonna be QQing along with SWTOR though :<

    Love the community here we have though, even if you guys keep hijacking threads with off-topics

    I still love my Gnomes, but I can't wait to play a race treated with equal respect and attention by the games developer.

    An example from the front page:
    2. Gifts to Faction Leaders Daily Quest
    Daily quests to give Gifts to faction leaders are also available.
    You can start the quests by talking to Kwee Q. Peddlefeet in any capital city

    Alliance players can present a gift to the leaders of Ironforge, Darnassus, Stormwind and The Exodar.
    Because you know, my Gnome girl would never give a gift to her High Tinker...

    Well, anything but one word names, to be more accurate. Since you were able to have multiple spaces in GW1 as well.

    I loved my gnomes for years...it was harrowing to leave them behind. The mechagnome title is a reminder that I've shut them in a cupboard...I can hear them scratching at the door, pleading in their shrill voices to play again and wailing at why I've forsaken them.
    By hell, I mostly meant the wait for GW2 Then my asura can truly make me forget about my gnomes.

    Because you know, my Gnome girl would never give a gift to her High Tinker...
    Yh..I rly disliked this about Blizzard. Why create a playable race only to constantly, and ironically, belittle them? Gnome punting jokes became very tiresome...

    I can't wait t go reserve names and create my character. I will probably try and be speedy and reserve a few names before i mess with features. After I find out what I like I will quick as possible delete my first names character and create them with the actual look I like lol. I'm not worried about the two word names I want just one or two of the one word names I'm hoping for I think will be taken rather quickly.

    It won't have any effect, names are global.

    Buy GW1. Create characters of all the names you want. Reserved for GW2. Win

    Ahh...then that is a somewhat inconvenient technical drawback...

    I assume with a 2 name system then you can have multiple people with the same first name; which removes any need for accents on US servers.

    But I have to think up a last name...
    "Gamer" is not a bad word. I identify as a gamer. When calling out those who persecute and harass, the word you're looking for is "asshole." @_DonAdams
    When you see someone in a thread making the same canned responses over and over, click their name, click view forum posts, and see if they are a troll. Then don't feed them.

    Fantasy last names are easy peasy. Just think of two things and put them together, I also LOVE alliteration in fantasy names :S
    Examples: Some of my GW1 Characters
    Riven Rageblade
    Misty Riverfall
    Luna Languish
    Rayne Vileblade
    Rayne Stormbow
    River Rainblossom
    Alsera Soulsong

    You can also add makeshift titles this way
    Horo the Blind
    Minion the Tracker

    I actually love making names like this I could go on and on so I will stop myself :S

    P.S: Don't you dare touch my Luna or I will take the mesmer who is her namesake and find you on whatever server you are on and beat you to a pulp
