Haven't been in for nearly a year due to real life intruding. I do plan to return, so I thought I'd best log in after I got that E-Mail about the Accounts Cleanup.

Right now, personal matters are keeping me from taking the necessary time to get back into the game, but as General McArthur once said, I SHALL return.



This! ^ Hope to see you rejoin the game one day. Glad your name won't be taken.

One of the good things about the update is that mule accounts are likely to use throwaway/disposable emails, or emails which their owners will never check again.

You would expect people who have old accounts with 'good' names, ones that are perhaps their login names, would have used their main/primary email account for that account, so they are likely to be aware of Jagex's plan to release their name, and if they really care, they can login to stop it.

This game is well over 13 years old. Are you using the same email you were using 13 years ago? I'm not.

When friends change their names, it is difficult to remember who they originally were, especially if you stopped playing for some time and start playing again. Is there some way you can introduce a history sort of thing for their names, which can tell us their original and other names, if necessary? Doesn't have to be in-game, but it'll be very helpful (I'm sure I speak for some other people about this problem, even though I may not be expressing myself clearly). Thanks

Thanks To be honest, I forgot you could do that. But there may be some cases where you have to ask a friend, in essence, 'Who are you?' which is always a little awkward. But thank you again, I'll start doing that from now on
