Level 1 name holders

Does anyone else feel like accounts that are level 1, an EXP bar of 0/99, should have the minimum time before name can be taken? These accounts are clearly inactive and they're not going to become active. They haven't ONCE been active if it has zero games played.

I think a good change to this would be make you play a few games before securing the name, or being a certain level. I'm not sure if anyone else has had this problem, but a name I want is taken by an account that is level 1, 0/99 for EXP, obviously no games played on it; its availability is sometime near the end of august. Obviously for such a lost cause, it'd suck to wait, so that's why I had this idea for minimum games played to secure the name.

tl;dr level 1 nameholders are really annoying

All accounts are given 1 month of protection per level, 6 months minimum. If they don't play for 6 months the name will be free for the taking. Are you wanting less protection for low level accounts on top of that?

Note that some of these protected-name accounts are actually permanent.

Why? Because all of riot's support staff (ones you see on tickets and stuff, those usernames) are all level 1 accounts.

Spaghetti... code??? I don't know.

I used to be a name collector, no not the kind that made a level 1 and taking all the good names. I like to change my name every 2 months and I've got a lot of black market name sellers added me because I kept on taken the name that they wanted. Riot need to stop people from hogging good names on level 1 account and then turn around sell it for money. http://www.auplod.com/u/poldua8017b.png
