I think this is a good question, not silly at all. First, welcome to NORDuffy wrote:ok silly question from a newbie.
My in game character name is Peadar. I registered as Duffy (which I use as my legacy name and is my account name on the swtor forums).
I plan on having several characters in the guild if all goes well. I have not picked a "main" because I am still only like 3 weeks into the game.
Is Duffy ok to keep? or should I go to Peadar?
Second, I think just about everyone has alts with various names so not to worry about that either.
The main reason for this post is to try to keep what is on our Roster matching with the usernames here on the forums.
In your case it would appear that you applied to NOR under Peadar, but registered to the forums as Duffy. So, assuming all goes well and you are eventually promoted to a full member, we'll want to update your information on both the roster and here on the forums.
If you used the same name for both, it just makes it easier for the officers keeping track of promotions, awards, transfers, etc.
So you can change your name on the forums to Peadar, or change your name on the roster to Duffy - or you can wait and see how it goes and take you time to decide. Just let us know once you do
