Harvey Jillybean Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Hi,I would really much like an alt that doesn't have 'Resident' as a last name.Anyone out there that would be interested in selling one to me? I would like a common first name without numbers in it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knowl Paine Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 I don't believe that Accounts are transferable. :smileysad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melita Magic Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 You can sell an account with special permission from the Lab. PS, or try here . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knowl Paine Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Yes, I forgot about that, thanks Melita. I think LL words it as express written consent. This sounds like it requires sending snail mail to LL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvey Jillybean Posted August 25, 2011 Author Share Posted August 25, 2011 Or I could buy the login and password.. Then change the account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melita Magic Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Don't recall the particulars but I do think it involves Linden Lab being the go between, yes. They want to make sure it wasn't under duress or simply hacked I'd guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvey Jillybean Posted August 25, 2011 Author Share Posted August 25, 2011 :-( That page didn't work.. Tried all names in the worl, including "kjasgbvpw".. but it just gave me a error message. But thank you so much for giving me my hopes up there for a while.. *cries* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to log into SL with your current account, search for the firstname-lastname combination of your choice inworld, and find one that does not exist yet. Here are a few that seem to be free: Harvey Highwater, Lexx Deluxe, Leonard Lastchance, Lester Lyric, Harvey Hurricane... there are still a lot of possibilities PS: I think you also need to use a different email address than the one you've previously signed up with. Used to be that you could only register one account per email address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marianne Little Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 I don't remember where I read it, but I seem to remember that 5 avatars on one email works? That's how I am set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhys Goode Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 You can try FirstnameLastname as an account name, not quite the same as not having Resident, but close. I know someone with several alts, kind of like JoeLastname, HarryLastname, TomLastname. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to be that you could only register one account per email address. Those are good tips, OP, you should listen. If you already have registered there a lot it might not work, but if you have only one account as you said in the OP, it should work for you. Use a new email address. It's the last bastion of last names in SL, that I know of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Persephone Emerald Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 Ya know, if Linden Lab wants to make some money, they could start selling off the names of old accounts that haven't been used in years. I bet there would be a good market for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
