    Default A work around on the character ign change

    Thanks for stealing my idea you thief, Tesiqurasa
    1. Go to your buddy list window- known as the “R” tab
    2. Go to the “Overall Tab” on buddy list
    3. Right click on all the buddies, and go to friend memo
    4. A blank window will appear and type their name and click apply
    5. Now when the character ign event comes, all the inactive people will have numbers as their ign.
    6. You will properly address them.

    I don't get it. Why does this matter? This is for accounts that haven't been accessed in years. I really doubt they'll come back.

    There you go they came back before the name change thing. So what's the problem? Most people won't come back.

    If anything, leaving my BL un-nicknamed will help me know which people to delete when I need to clean my list out.
    Butts.

    213 181 178 166 165 164 162 152 147 135 134 130 125 123 123 120 120 104 100 100

    This will only work for people added after the buddy system revamp. That happened after 2013. No one who will be an account buddy will have their names changed, unless they choose to use the free name-change coupon.

    Only people whose accounts have been completely inactive since Jan 2013 will be changed to numbers.


    tl;dr
    This won't fix the "number-name" issue.
