I am not sure if this is a stupid question but can their names be used for new accounts after their account is deleted?

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.

I remember there being a refractory period of about 6 months. Unfortunely, due to the fact that accounts are no longer deleted automatically, don't expect your 'dream' name to be available any time soon.

I think Rampancy (if he's still around) has had the same username twice.

Posted by: Unanimate ObjecThanks for quoting that. I almost missed it.

I try to make the obvious a tad more obvious.


Also, Rampancy may have been able to have it twice because he let his account get automatically deleted way back when then reused (and uses) it to this day.

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

If that member is deleted and no one else is using the name, I would expect that name could be used.

Now try how and why."

Have you considered getting glasses? I hear that they help with that sort of thing.

I would imagine so. What else would be the purpose for deleting users?

It's interesting cause I've never thought of it. I really don't know the answer to that question.

Because the accounts are unused. In the past when users wanted a specific name, Achronos could just change it. I don't think he's done it more than once or twice for non-ninja/staff though.
