Name removal

[bob_hello]

Just wondering if anyone here knew what they do? I've noticed they have been deleting inactive accounts, letting you change your name to them. A few examples include the name "Canada" and "Carrots". I'm guessing they are working there way through the alphabet A-Z. After logging into my old staking account a few of the names on my friends list are now called [#234243252] or [#3242352362].

 

Can anyone help fill me in?

 

PS: If you want a rare name try searching for one starting with C as this seems to be where they are upto in the deleting of names.

This link should help.

I also think they will do the same for offensive names.

Good Luck.

You are correct. Right now they are super slowly going through all existing names in alphabetical order(numbers come first).

They check each name if they have ever been member, if they have 30+ stats, if they have logged in in the last year, if they are permabanned, if their account is locked and if their account is special(mods, protected names and few other things). If one of those points apply to the name, the name will remain unchanged. If not, the name will be changed to [#4242523522523525] and it will be released for everyone to use.
