To the developers of idle on...

[MR.minecraft]

PLEASE MAKE IT SO YOU CAN HAVE THE NAME YOU WANT YOUR CHARACTER TO BE,It is very frustrating that after trying to name my 1st character 46 different names i am still locked out from playing

[Ov Å̪e̞oη̣s]

you REALLY have to try niche names. I think Dev is looking at releasing names from old accounts that have not logged in for years. Also try non-words. Usually need to invent names. Expect all popular names, terms and such to be taken. I see lots of people add random numbers to the end of things.

I would love a black desert online kind of family naming tbh.
Like, my family is named xjochumx and all my characters have that name.
would be so much better considering that with the amount of characters you can have, reasonable unique names will run out quick, and even abstract ones may already be taken.

The MMO aspect is so nonexistent that I can't figure out how or why this is even an issue.

[Crazy_Flying_Worm_Dude]

just add random numbers to your end of your name like 1264520

Learning how to keep your name as close to what you want while making it a non duplicate is an acquired skill.

Your account is linked to your email which is, inarguable, unique. Character names need not be with how little the game leverages its limited MMO mechanics. Currently Doot and Snake Jar are the only things that require other users to get done... and it has been that way
since 2020.

Would 15,000 users named "Tim" get confusing? Maybe to users, but not on the sever side as it would look something like "uniqueUserEmail.Tim" internally. Binding the names to the unique emails, which is already being done, eliminates the need for a secondary username DB.

Now, if Lava ever adds in MMO mechanics that are worthwhile into the game then I could see a reason to police names, but that seems exceptionally unlikely with how often he disappears after the whales fill his pockets in the wake of updates.

and here I am with characters like "Bud Manstrong", "Bendytoots", "Mia Dearden", "Dr Ducktor", and Tefifon.

It says my next 2 character slots require a combined level of 9999.... that's what I'm a little worried about.
