Tip - Reserving Your Name for Cataclysm

[hpdark]

I'm sure some people here already do this but many people overlook this and forget. With the new expansion comes a lot of people who are going to make worgen. (This applies to goblins too but who's going to make those?)
You can create a lvl 1 character and reserve your worgen name ahead of time. When you finally get the expansion you can delete your character and name the worgen with the name you reserved.
Feel free to post clever names for other members to use (if you don't mind your name being used on other servers haha) but if you're lucky you might be able to name one "Worgen" or something.

I'd call my Worgen "Morgenworgen"
Morgen is german for "morning"

But I will just take my Niteelf druid, pay 20 bucks and transfer it to worgen race...

This is common sense. But oh well. I'm sure some will benefit from it +Rep

The idea is good, but the method isnt right.

Names that you delete become available again after 90 days of realtime. So if you're going to reserve a name, just go buy a race change on that particular character with the name.

A lot easier than having to wait the whole 90 days to get it again.

WRONG! that's just if you buy a faction change and name change, I suggest you read patch notes more carefuly in the future. :P

This only applies to other players, If you delete a character you yourself can use the name before the 90 days, but after the 90 days, anyone can.
