International Server Relations & Player Account Handling
(Foreword)- I previously submitted this post to Riot in a ticket, but was directed here as the HR people can't deal with this personally. So please like if you agree, and leave your thoughts, and HOPEFULY Riot will notice this and act on it.
Hey lovely Riot workers, I'll admit my issue here is far from pressing, however, after discovering changes in recent years/months about the base account rules regarding naming among other things, I've been very disappointed due to Summoner names acquiring language/native character exclusive limitations. I personally am a scholar of many foreign languages, as well as a huge supporter of your fantastic game, both monetarily & in spirit otherwise.
I can't help but be further disappointed by this recent change I believe occurred in 2015 sometime. I think this is very retroactive and unnecessary, especially considering the declining availability of unique and interesting name options. I'm not sure that I alone can convince you to retract this limitation, however, I am willing to petition if I feel like my argument is being dismissed.
My personal involvement in this case is that I've been recently debating around with new name ideas in the spirit of your current discount, and I was baffled when I discovered the absurd strictness of only have the 10 character number system and English alphabet. At the very least, I would like to have the ability to use the same language systems already available in your other regions cough *日本 *cough ^_^
I do hope you carefully consider reverting this change as a whole, for the good of the diversity of your vast community, and in the meantime, I would graciously welcome an exception to change my own name to a 日本語の名前、お願いします~ Thank you for your time and daily efforts to keep this great game alive and growing--
Sincerely from a dedicated player who has; 5 Year++ legacy, ~2000 hours of gameplay invested, over $1,500 USD spent, and countless recruits to LoL from friends and acquaintances who have in turn contributed immense value to the community & your company themselves.
