    Hello,


    It's my first time using forums, so I apologize if I'm posting in the wrong section.

    I deleted my character, but when I tried to remake it I got "This name is currently being used." The thing is, that's impossible. Nobody knows this name except my family members.

    Could you check if it's actually used by someone or if it's a bug?


    Thanks so much for your time!

    Seems like either you have the character on another account or someone sniped it from you

    Hi Johnny, thanks for taking the time to respond! I really appreciate it.

    I've been researching since then, and found that ppl also have this issue in Maple Global. Apparently there's a new patch that locks the name for a random of time before it's available. The only account I have this name is on GMS.

    After I deleted my character, I tried remaking it. So it's highly unlikely that it was sniped. I'm the only one who knows this name. Besides, it's almost impossible that someone would snipe it immediately after I deleted my character.

    Again, I'm so thankful for you responding! I haven't played it yet because of this name dilemma. If there's anything the staff (or even me!) can do to help, please let me know. I'm anxious to be able to play the #1 private server.

    Thanks again Johnny! [:)]

    Hi Tim,

    I'm so honored that you're replying to my thread!

    Do you know which account the character was created on? I seem to recall that the timestamp was when I tried to create my character, but it didn't work as I only got that error message I screenshotted early, and I didn't see any character created. It states that the name is already "taken". :(

    I'm wondering if this was a glitch in the system and that the character was created but doesn't show up on my account - I can forward you my account info if that might help!

    Thank you very much for your help Tim.
