Account Name

How do I change my account name to my community name instead of having it Graal######?

You can't. Normally servers shouldn't show the Graal##### anywhere. If you are seeing it, report the instance to the server for them to fix (and then bug Stefan if they don't fix it since he will get mad and make them).

If it makes you feel better, staff on Classic iPhone all pretty much get their account name set to their community name.

Except they've all got them as a profile variable specifically displaying it. It pisses me off because people still feel like their accounts are inferior, but the staff don't have Graal##### accounts so nobody cares enough.

Indeed. I wish your idea of giving everyone a Graal##### account was possible.

Bad example, just I've noticed a few of the staff there have real account names which they most likely had to request which kinda defeats the purpose of the Community Name system.

Rufus pretty much hits the nail on the head, people with Graal# accounts feel a noticeable lack of support for them and want the uniqueness of an account name.

What should be a transparent system to players isn't in a fair amount of cases, but there's plenty of threads on this that discuss it to death.

I see people with custom account names all the time. Like when I'm doing Posion Purge on UN and it has all the names above. It'd be
like "Remaining players: weeway, Stella, Graal#### (me)"

Unholy Nation is supposed to correct that issue. It is their faults for not doing so. They could easily have it display as "weeway, Stella, Cosss" by literally replacing the word account with communityname in the script. That's something you should take up with them. This system has been around for years now, they really should have adapted by now.

I'd recommend noting every single occurrence where this takes place and report it to staff members on there to fix it.

Way to read what Tig posted. Like he said, it's nothing but UN scripters refusing to adapt to community names rather than account names.

This is not an issue that is limited to Unholy Nation alone. Both Era and Zodiac display "account names" as a profile variable. Of course, it's not just profiles either, but that's one thing I've noticed while server hopping. We have discussed community name integration for events, but the person that was going to do it ended up quitting, and no one else seems to care.

I read what he said, I asked if anyone else was annoyed by this.

Ruf: What is your account name?
