Ship Name Requests
10/05/2005 12:23 PM CDT
It's been about 2 weeks now since I submitted a name for a ship. Is this normal? Is there anyway to find out if the requested name was not approved? Will I be notified if the name is approved? Is anyone even working on ship names anymore?! I'm getting more and more upset everytime I go to check the list and the name isn't there.

Yea, Solomon. Can you check for us? I'm part owner in this ship with Mingold and Olvi's aren't good at being patient! <hums> Seriously, anyway to get the names on the list, please? Mingold, Rolach and I would really appreciate it!

I'd like to know as well, it's taking much longer to get the name then it's going to be to build the whole ship.

Request again. I'd suggest requesting every couple days during prime time. I think the name gets stored into a hopper that GMs and can see if they choose to, but probably nobody does... and i also think if you request a ship name while GMs are on they will see it. So keep requesting until the person who needs to be on is on. I'm sure if they rejected the name and they see you keep asking for it someone will tell you.
Bottom Line: Keep requesting.

We did assist about where to see the names list right after we requested the name and we got a GM.
like Kraelyst said Ming keep requesting it, if nothing else the GMs will get annoyed that the queue is getting full and they'll be forced to give us an answer.

by the way, the ORDER process is a bit broken in barana's - she has listed to order boats which already are in existence <such as the immortal hand and the bloody stalker> and owned by others.
I assisted on the issue, not sure when they'll fix it.

Yeah, it's a known issue with the shipyard. That's why there were two ships named Star's Grace for a short while until the newer one was able to be changed. And congratulations on joining the ranks of Captain, gonif! Can't wait to see your ship sailing the high seas! :)

Boat Name Requests

On a much less negative note...
Anyone have any idea about how long it takes a request for a boat name to go thru?
I only put it in last night, and I also know I won't be contacted if the name is approved/disapproved. I'll be checking the list again when I get home, but I'd like to know when it's become hopeless and I should try a new name.

If you don't get a response it doesn't mean your name was rejected. They'll probably tell you if your name is rejected. Also, although your request may go into some sort of queue it doesn't seem like anybody checks that queue very often, so the thing to do is request frequently until you get a response. From what Solomon has told me in response to my FAQ (www.lurksponge.com/travel/faq.html) I'd recommend requesting once every day or two and usually do it during prime time.

I didn't want to keep posting it, because when I put in the request it said "though you can make another request in an hour, it's suggested you don't make the same request"
- When is considered prime time? I can't be on from 9am-8pm because I work for 9 hours(10-7) with an hour commute. I'll hit it up when I get home, nightly, though.

Old Request Being Renewed
02/21/2009 11:25 PM CST
Could we please get the ability to have more than 3 people able to control the ship? I don't mind pay some plats for it but with the lack of new ships I think this could be an "easy" (could be hell) fix that would make a lot of folks happy. Or maybe make it by ship size. Cog gets 3 who can control and each size up adds 1.
