I would support free, no-strings attached, name changes within, say, 2 weeks of account creation. So regardless of whether the original name is "OK", as long as the new name is also "OK", let them do it. Changing a family/character name is hardly an onerous task. (I think it's just a matter of looking at the request list and clicking a yes/no button.) So I don't see requiring new players to delete an account and recreate it as being a satisfactory option. We *want* people to play our game. We have the ability to be nice to them. Why don't we just be nice?
