On 28 October UTC, Kaivax identified an overly strict Forever name check, including false rejection of names containing con. A fix was scheduled for regional restarts.[1]

Later that day, support reported hotfixes addressing several naming issues. If the change has not appeared after a few minutes logged in, the advice is to switch rulesets and return.[2]

Acceptance, name availability and regional status remain unverified here.
