Blizzard Announces Name Reservation Issue for Oceanic Players in WoW: Forever

Blizzard has announced a name reservation issue for Oceanic Players who are connecting to Australian-based servers.

Attention Oceanic players connecting to Australian-based servers!.

Due to a bug, you must create any characters on Roleplay or Roleplay-player vs player (PvP) rulesets before creating characters on Normal or PvP rulesets.

If you first create a character on the Normal or player vs player (PvP) ruleset, the Roleplay and Roleplay-PvP rulesets will no longer be available for subsequent characters.

This issue should only be present for players in the Oceanic region who are connecting to Australian servers, and we’re working on a fix for it urgently.
