How to KEEP your name

So you got a name, played a looong time and some twat reported it and now Blizzard's going to force you to change?

Well, no problem!
This one takes some time, but it's worth it!

Keeping your "Meatlips" female orc hunter is worth it

So, how?

First, make sure you have to change,
it's represented by the little pop-up window
"You need to change name"
Just cancel and log into another character
Now don't touch your character...

After some time Blizzard auto-changes your name,
not sure why, but they do.

When you log in and see your auto-changed name,
just log into the char and you'll still get the
"You need to change name" window, at which point you can just type in your original name.

You MIGHT have to let your account go Frozen, I'm not sure there yet.
I did before it worked.
This DOES work as I did it yesterday.
Questionable forumspamming names ftw

You might want to mak an alt to keep your name safe until you can change it btw..

Get a friend to report it and hope its offensive enough so they will change it.

ger=?

kurzfassung ger: "wenn blizz will dass du deinen namen änderst, und du das fenster siehst "sie müssen ihren namen ändern", dann logg aus, mach nen andern char, und zock den solange bis der name deines eigentlichen chars von blizz selbst geändert wurde. wenn du dann wieder einloggst, hast du immer noch das fenster "sie müssen ihren namen ändern" und du kannst deinen namen wieder auf den alten ändern."
