It was never before available, names come up only once, and you'll have to act as long it's there, the only one to blame is... you

Ok, but who even knew that names rotate? I certainly didn't. It's not something one is told when one joins. As long as there isn't two people with the same first and last name what's the problem?

This kind of bureaucratic thinking doesn't help.

Yeah, okay, but there are many people who would PITCH AN ABSOLUTE FIT if somebody came in later and got assigned "their" last name after the original offer passed. Of course that reaction makes no sense, but it's really not Linden Lab's lunacy here, it's the deep, deep entitlement of virtual world players that's hard to plumb.

How annoying. People add to surnames in real life all the time. Imagine George Washington having a child's temper tantrum over all the Washingtons that have come after him.

Make a display name.

If I make a display name won't resident still show up as my surname?

That will show them! The only problem with that is they couldn't care less. 

And that policy is why they've lost so many members.

I understand that, but there's another option: I'll just stop paying for a membership and remain in SL without supporting them. Two can play at that game.

Hi. There was a last name on the list a while back which hasn't been available for a long time. Coincidentally, it's a name my friend calls me and I would like to change it.

I wrote two tickets but was told each time that that name is not available and likely won't come back into rotation.

I don't get it. I'm a paying member of SL. it would enrich my experience. Why does LL seem determined to make things less fun? I'm willing to pay the price to change my name. Can someone tell me how I can get around this stupid anti-fun arrogance of LL and get the name I want?

Yep, I had to shell out for a Lelutka head. Boy am I sorry I bought the Signature head.

Ugh. I have the same problem as the original poster. Signature Gianni head and cannot find a skin to work with it to save my life. Boy, way to discourage a newbie from Secondlife. What a ripoff.
