I'm too lazy to read this whole thread, so I dunno if someone already said this or not, but I'm gonna say it (again) anyway:

If a nick is in use in BF2, then you CANNOT use it in BF2142 YET! The whole idea of this program is that people can reserve their current nickname in BF2142. So if someone has the name you want in BF2, then you cannot get it in BF2142 until it comes out in stores. Then it's a free for all.

Clear now?

Because it's the same name.

If you have "Bob" in BF2 and wanna reserve "Bobby" in BF2142 while someone already has "Bobby" in BF2, then you gotta wait until 2142 hits the store shelves at which point you can get "Bobby" assuming they haven't registered it for 2142 yet.

I tried to reserve my name, but there was a glitch, so I tried another name, not thinking that if it worked, I would not have the name I wanted. Now I can't have "littlecheez9" as my BF2142 name. Damn...

so what you're saying is, that some dude had a name similar to yours in BF2 and now he reserved that name in BF2142 - come on, man... you never had that name in the first place and you still haven't got that name, so it really doesn't belong to you, does it.....

Wait until BF2142 retail. They'll be free then.

IT doesnt help that 2142 has a character limit of 14 for names...

"oh! so your name has more than 14 letters, well, hmm, fuck you? does that help? pwned"

Thank you!

If you have an account name in BF2, NO-ONE can steal it. Only YOU have access to that account unless they know your passowrd.

Because it's still his. You snoozed, you lost. He got it first.

As I said, just wait until BF2142 hits store shelves at which time you'll be able to get the nick assuming he didn't register it for BF2142 yet.

SOMEONE TOOK SHOWMETHEMONKEY!?!?!?!

Now I have to be "ShowMeTheMonk", and my EA acount name is "ShowMeTheStirk"! (Stirk is my last name)

Ahhh well, please remember that the legend of "ShowMeTheMonkey" has not died, just got shorter.
I'll still only play on BF2 as I love the real day setting. I hate playing in the future, it's just annoying.

I think the only way to get veteran status is by using your own name again for 2142... b/c i just tryed using like 100 different names other than my BF2 name, and none of them worked, most of them said "BF2 name already in use by another player".... wtf?
Don't think so. In fact I was forced to reserve a different name in BF2142, much to my frustration, 'cause my BF2 name has brackets in it ("[OHG]JdeFalconr"). I created my BF2 account before they let you put a prefix on your name.

Ya i know that (got 3 accounts in bf2), but some fucktard stole my usual gamer tag for Bf2, and now the same fucktard will do it for 2142.
