[ANSWERED] Who took my name?

Right, so I had two name changes, and I thought I'll try one and if I don't like it I'll revert back to my old name. I changed my name Zain_VaEvoluti to Lance_Armani, however I wanted the old one back, this is when I found out that the name was already taken... I waited a long time, and kept trying /changemyname Zain_VaEvoluti for numerous hours till I just changed it to Zain Armani. So I wonder who stole my name? Is that allowed?

I don't think there is no such rule for that.

Uhm, I don't think it's allowed to steal names.. although there are no rules against it. Have you tried /opm'ing Zain_VaEvoluti?

Good idea, I'll try the /opm.
I'm sure it can't be allowed? Simply because it's MG right? The person OOC knew I changed my name, and now is copying mine, but the main thing is why would someone want your name, possibly to troll on me..

Yeah, it was very fucking funny, ask an admin to check if Zain_VaEvoluti is still on the database and get your name back.

It's still in the database. Not sure who is using your name or IF it's used.

Well, I've done the same thing before, as a test of another name, literally 2mins later I reverted back to my old name and it worked like a Charm. I tried this one for hours on end, but with no result.

Some one has obviously been a funny cunt and taken your name, probably made an alt with it...

Someone changed their name to Mike_Alphonso when he had another nickname and his name was changed back or if he got banned (i don't remember). If he has restrictions, then we all have.

Adding [ADMIN] tag to your title so admins check the logs. Plus; I have put a brief of your question in the title instead of "Confused.".
And yes it's allowed to know who took your previous name.

I guess no one took it, Just your last name is not removed from Italy Mafia data base.

Nah that'll be annoying for admins when for example resolving a report against him where he's about to be jailed etc...

I'm slightly confused Lmao, do you want me to create a new IG account with Zain VaEvoluti, which will somehow fix it all, or am I getting this wrong :x
