My apologies if this subject has already been covered before. When deciding on a player name, I dealt with the usual frustration of names already taken, sooo as you can see....I used the first stupid thing that came to my mind. Obviously this name has created a few in match laughs but I'd like to change it to something a little less distracting lol. Do we know if this option will eventually be implemented ?

My vote is for you to keep your name...too epic to change. You should start a poll.

I think they've mentioned a probable name change function for a modest MC-sum. Don't know if that's still the plan and if so where on the priority list that is. Would seem logical to include it in UI 2.0 whenever that comes online.

edit: I for one like creative names like yours.

If you haven't done too much with your account (spent real money on it, etc.), You can always make a new account with a new name.

Your name owns. Never change it.

However, at some point a GM or mod might change it for you. That's what happened to fellow goon Sex Cannon (possibly a relative of yours :V )

They've alluded to a name change being available with UI 2.0/Launch, but e-mail support@mwomercs.com now, you might be able to get them to change it since it's probably technically against their naming policy.

Well if the name generates a laugh here and there then I guess I could keep it. Someone in match mentioned that it should be Sperm Recepticle instead but that would be going against my sexual orientation so any of our um....feminine, or not exactly straight members are welcome to that name.
Thanks for the positive feedback fellow warriors ;)

reaver means to seize or carry off so its closer to recepticle , maybe you should use sower or spreader.

Well you could contact support and ask them if they're willing to do it for you, due to ... special circumstances. :wacko:

Think you're referring to Reaper, meaning to reap souls ( Grim Reaper ) or reap the rewards from providing mind-numbing oral sex to your wife or girlfriend. Reaver is to cleave, hack, slice etc.....Hence the name Sperm Reaver......I kill pilots = no more offspring, although it's my arse that's getting kicked on this game more often than not lol.

We were in the same team last week when I seen this happened, I even looked up the definition and it was funny!

reave:

verb (used with object), reaved or reft, reav·ing. Archaic.
to take away by or as by force; plunder; rob.

So a sperm thief! - only when your in a Mech I hope!

Well my vote is you don't change it, it's far too good ;)
