I don't see how this was poorly handled? They told us exactly when the names were being released, so it was up to you to be on during that time frame. Everyone was given the exactly same opportunity, therefore some just got lucky where as others failed miserably.

I think the name changing servers are starting to cool down, now that all the good names have been taken.

Lets hope Jagex does a better/smoother job with the next batch of names (D-F).

It would have been better IMO if the rarest names were up for grabs in the loyalty shop. I have almost 500k loyalty points and would have gladly spent all of my points on a good name.

Are you kidding? This wasn't poorly handled? I was on at 2pm BST exactly when it started and I didn't get a name for almost 6 hours. Meanwhile all the names I wanted before this name were being taken

Please tell me how this wasn't poorly handled

I went for Babe,Cute,Butterfly,Alias,Angus.Bedtime,Brolly

All of them i thought i had lost , until i logged in this morn and found i actually had angus lmao. The display name system was lagging so much i never even knew i owned the name. 4 hours of sleep was worth it.

I had a list of all the names with a nice meaning to me that I would have liked to get. This one was the last in the list, but at least I got it.

It was rather frustrating, but quite decent still. Thank you for the opportunity anyways.

Spent four and a half hours this morning after the release trying to get the names I wanted. Didn't get a single one and now they're taken. Why do some people have the advantage while others don't?
