There's no date mix-up. We ran a database check, according to which the first player-created DUST 514 characters were born on the 26th of June, 2012. - there are accounts older than that, but an account is not a character. And if there's still something wrong, the search borked. My first characters were born slightly later, on the 3rd of July.

My is from July something 2012.
Somehow when I go to Dust bored it shows Early 2013 = Was that we the game moved to the Tranquility ?

Tells you date you activated dust.

For the first 3 months of closed beta, there were full character resets and all players/characters had to pick new names each month. The fact that I didn't have a "last name" for my character for the first month does not change the fact that this is the same character on the same account, with an added surname.

EDIT #1: Following your logic, the June date does not make sense unless people used the exact same name in June, and again in July and August when we had the additional full resets occurred.

Even so, my character had the same name - just no surname. In fact, if you count the full resets as new characters each time, then yes the oldest characters are dated for the move to TQ which was January 2013, and so Archduke would still be wrong.


EDIT #2: There may have only been resets in June and July of that year, and not August. I am fairly certain there were 2, and only reasonably certain there were 3.
