IGN Correction As I already said in a previous thread I made about the IGNs getting a number in case it was taken. Now some people have really been frustrated with this. It surely will irritate me to have a random number added up in front of my ign. Now I know that we get a name change but what if I want that specific name? We all have a gaming name that we love. Now you'll be thinking, "fine I'll have to compromise or let it go"......but WAIT!!! there is something you can do. And here is what you can... You can ask ATA in the help section to help you with it. You have to just tell them that you would like the name to be corrected to regular. But WAIT!!! Now read this closely before running off to the help section. You can only ask for name change if you want the same ign as it is without the number or some "faking of letter". For example, if you wanted alex as your ign but alex is already taken so you got alex12. Or you are using a(I)ex. Now you can ask ATA to change it to alex, AND ONLY ALEX! NOT ALEXIS OR ALEXANDER!!! ONLY ALEX! 'cause that would be a name change. But there are some conditions that need to be filled.... 1.The account that has the name you want is inactive for a long time. 2.The account is a noob one i.e. some long forgotten alt or account that never really was used. 3.The account has low stats and is not mcs or higher. (not sure on this one) I know this because a friend of mine changed her name as well by asking ATA. And ATA did it as the other account was inactive long since. Now run off and ask ATA if they screwed up with your name. PS - Do not go to ATA and ask for a total different name! Only ask to correct only if the account with the ign is dead! So check before asking! And tell here if it worked for you!!!
You can only ask ATA to release/"correct" a name when the account has been inactive for 6+ months and they are not still in the tutorial(if I remember correctly)
Pretty sure you can ask them to make ANY name available if the other criteria (of the account being officially "dead"), and change to that for 20ecs. Are you saying that the name change, in this case, is free?
That I don't know ? well it should be 'cause no one asked for a no. in their ign. But for the fake letter idk
If an account is dead for a considerable time, support can free up that username for you (any username, nothing like Alex and only Alex, not Alexis, Alexander) and you can change username to it. If you have a free name change, you can change for free. If not, you can change for 20ec.
