CCP Eterne C C P C C P Alliance 1683	Posted - 2013.05.21 09:55:00 - [2] - Quote Potentially. Send in a petition about it. If you can prove the EVE account is yours, the GMs might be able to help you.

Odiain Suliis The Unholy Legion Of DarkStar DARKSTAR ARMY 153	Posted - 2013.05.21 09:58:00 - [3] - Quote Well if you still can logg into that it's account management site, then you could use Hour for PLEX, feature and biomass your charachter. (Altho I'm not certain IF biomassing procedure completes, since the Hours for PLEX only lasts few hours and biomassing takes longer.) IF that works then after that biomassing timer has ticked you can use that same name on DUST, but so can any one else. Or you coud just perition from your EVE char and hope for the best.
Anto Dena Ikomari-Onu Enforcement Caldari State 0	Posted - 2013.05.21 10:35:00 - [4] - Quote Many thanks for the answer and tips. I will try log on my old account. See you on the Battlefield (oh no, sorry this is DUST)

Biomassing a character doesn't clear them from the namespace. They are put in an invisible corp named Doomheim.

Characters in that corp have a special exception and, I'm assuming, just get renamed to "Caldari Citizen 12345678" when that happens. They get moved instead of outright deleted to make it simpler for a GM to hit the 'Undo' button.

Should I purchase the Steam version to do that Biomass thing? (never heard about that...)

Oh god... I wanted really to have it in my steam list... Can't I purchase it and log in with my old account? Paying a new Subscription for it?

The client is free no matter how you get it, and isn't bound to any account. Buying it through Steam is just another way to pay for an account activation. If you must have the client as a SteamApp just download the Demo version and log in as normal (ignore the new account trial key you get). I don't like this because it buries the install inside the Steam installation directory which makes managing the test server install for Sisi annoying.
Krightun Sanmatar Kelkoons Minmatar Republic 16	Posted - 2013.05.22 02:53:00 - [12] - Quote I had a trial account from back in 2010 i went through the process using email for deleting the trial name to use in DUST 514. unfortunately I wasn't quick enough, some eve player stole the name I used. now I'll most likely never be able to use it. the only way I think I'd be able to use it is if I payed the person ISK to rename themselves so I could make a new merc under my originaly used name.

While we have considered offering character renaming as a service we may offer in future, this would need to be supported by a name history feature that is viewable to players in both games in order to ensure players can't hide from their old identity. With this in mind we have no immediate plans to offer this service, but we will be sure to discuss this with the community before moving forward.

Alan-Ibn-Xuan Al-Alasabe Planetary Response Organisation 329	Posted - 2013.05.22 11:04:00 - [15] - Quote Surely character name isn't the primary key, right? So tracking a person after a name change would be as simple as looking in your contact list or sent/received messages. They'd still be there, but under a different name.

All characters could have a real name and a nickname; by default the nickname is the real name, but you can change it. In most situations the game(s) display the nickname, but the real name is always available in the character info.
