How do you request a guild name? I typed in the name I wanted to have, and I can't figure out how to enter it after pressing " request guild name "

You just press enter after you enter a name.

OutlawZ · #3 12-18-2007, 11:43 PM

Yeah you just press "enter"...

and it tells you immediately that your name is rejected!

or

absolutely nothing happens and you still don't get a name!

LOL
whats up with the thing?
LOL

I know, what's wrong with it?

When creating a Pirate, just enter the name you want it to have then press enter OR choose from the names already there and push enter. After that (when you are finished), you will be given a temporarily name. It doesn't take that long for them to accept it. For me, about the second time I logged on with my first Pirate, which was like immediately after I crashed playing.

For me, I chose the names like 100 times, nothing happened, or was rejected, finally i tried a theory, and on one of the occasions that it did NOT send a rejection message, I waited a day, then logged in, it was approved, guild name changed.

Are you saying you tried the SAME name over and over, or different names? I am having the same problem.

CaptainJaneWavebreaker · #8 07-02-2008, 05:53 AM

I'm having the same problem too...even when I just type in random letter combinations (not actual words) it says that there is already a guild with that name, or just switches back to the generic 'Pirate Guild ######'.

Frustrating!

Rackat · #9 07-02-2008, 02:11 PM

Once you enter the name and hit the Enter button, you have to wait 24-36 hours before it tells you it was rejected or until the name shows up.

Instant gratification will just have to take a back seat if you want a specific guild name.

Also if you type in your desired name, press enter. "Think" nothing happened, type it in AGAIN and press enter, you will likely be immediatley rejected being told its already in use.

This is because you entered it the first time. If that happens, set it to something else, then back to what you want and LEAVE IT (once you type it in and press enter... thats it).

You should hear back in 24-36 hours as Rackat mentioned.

If it fails, try it again. I haven't gotten Charming Thieves the first time: as soon as it was rejected, I put it back in again. Got it. Then... lost it.

Dr. Zeppers · #12 07-02-2008, 07:07 PM

I have had pirate names rejected a couple times, and kept trying and it was approved eventually (ie the name "OFx Zeppers").

Had the same thing happen with Guild names. I think different Disney reviewers/staff have different criteria for approvals.

Cris Carter · #13 07-02-2008, 08:23 PM

I ve heard of a bug regarding guild names. But they have fixed that with the last update.

astrocamstar · #14 07-10-2008, 06:18 AM

After ye type the guild name in push enter, just as most of the people above have said.

Aliese · #15 07-10-2008, 05:23 PM

Just a note regarding wait times, I did one this AM for my "anonymous/antisocial" pirate (LoL), and it was approved by the time I checked it again, less than two hours later.

Apparently they're having a slow day.
