I see a CCP dev has said on reddit that a name change service is being talked about, and that it might happen sooner rather than later. Is there any more info on this? Pricing, ETA etc? I tried the forum search but it didn't work. |

No offence Chribba, but this isn't a poll to see who wants it or not. I was asking if there are any more details available. Below is the full quote from CCP Terminus:

We'll let you know more in the future if we move forward with it.
Thank you for responding, I appreciate it.
Just my two cents, but I it's definitely something I'd like to see implemented, with the necessary safeguards to appease the rather vocal forum users who might be against it. |

Possibly as a response to player feedback. I guess they get quite a lot of tickets asking for a name change. |

Yes. It's funny how allowing a name change with an easy way to see the previous name of a character being played by the same person somehow trashes the concept of personal reputation and allows people to escape consequences, but the selling of a character to be played by a completely different person somehow doesn't. It's almost as if people don't bring this up because they are happy to make billions of ISK selling characters. |

I suspect CCP would put restrictions on the service to prevent frequent name changes, such as once per character or once per year etc. |
