Omali Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Which means I'll never get Omali as a nickname. I'm pretty sure the guy who got the name is banned, he hasn't shown up on the high scores between '03 and when free to play was taken off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaz Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Ew. Banned account names shouldn't be perm locked like this unless its obviously a dumb bot name, or a super high profile one... Why lock legit players out of a name on an account that was dumb enough to break the rules? ]Note how it lists 3 separate bullets? It appears like they aren't releasing banned account names at all. I have no intentions of changing my name, but I hope they release more really good old unused names... Which means I'll never get Omali as a nickname. I'm pretty sure the guy who got the name is banned, he hasn't shown up on the high scores between '03 and when free to play was taken off. Like Devnull said, Steve was referring to banned account names themselves, not the names of accounts that have been banned. When someone has their name changed by a moderator because the name is offensive, that name can no longer be used by anyone for obvious reasons. I remember that being confirmed somewhere. The text Steve used in that particular case was a little ambiguous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arceus Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Maybe I will try to get a "rare" username on another account...but truthfully I have other things to do.

Hobgoblinpie Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Trying to snipe a username I've wanted since I started playing RS. It's not on the highscores, so I assume there is some likelihood to it being freed up. We'll see. POH Agility Course, Please Support! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginger_Warrior Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Platinum_Myr, they're only talking about truly offensive names that nobody is allowed to have. They're not talking about non-offensive names on accounts that got banned. You more than likely have a chance still to grab that name which you're looking for, but you'll have to try like crazy to get a hold of it. :geek: ~D. V. "I did a bit of reading to come to this conclusion..." DevnullNo seriously. My previous account's name wasn't offensive in the slightest. It's a banned account, and I can't get the name. You're speculating at best, guessing at worst, but whatever the case, you're totally wrong. | Favourite Game Music | Last.fm | HYT Friend Chat Rules | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thus Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Been trying to get a username I wanted for years. It has never logged in and was never on this high scores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icecube Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I was hoping to use this as an excuse to finally change my RSN but none of the ones I want are available.. they're also fairly unique names that I usually am able to use everywhere else so that's strange.
