#RENAME

[Blackrapier]

HI. 

I'm trying to enter Garrosh's Realm after a long time, and it's asking me to rename my characters. But it won't accept any names I give them. Is this a general error, or am I doing something wrong? Thanks in advance for any responses.

I had a rename along time ago, I had a female low level human warrior named Xena.

While questing someone asked me if they can have the name, tbey will give me gold and I can start a new character since mine is low level.

I refused.

He just said its fine I will get my buddy to get the name. I said you can try, its not for sale.

After a while I am stunned, go into a loading screen and is stunned sitting on a chair.

And then a person chats with Blizz in blue as a name.

All he said is, "You could have had gold, now watch as I take your name"

I get kicked from server, log back immediately and see my char is #rename.

Create a random name and log in, search the name, and low and behold a lvl 1 human female warrior named Xena.

I contacted the bug report system back then, this website did not exist back then. Sent a bug report, report player and everywhere I could for assistance, just got ignored, probably because a buddy wanted a name, threw n hissy fit. And the Gm's think they are god.

Have not played on MoP much after that, and quit after MoP.

Trying TWW now, hopefully it has changed and there are no Gm's abusing power.

I am hoping for the best.
