Linden Lab Issue ID: DEV-4440


 Description  « Hide
If someone registers a Second Life name and goes to the second page of registration, (Real name, Password, etc.) but doesn't finish the second page and closes it, the name is labeled as taken and unusable even though there was never a registration confirmation email sent out. If the same person wanted to come back and finish their registration, they wouldn't be able to get the name that they were previously told was available.

Also, if someone finishes the whole registration process and a confirmation email is sent out, but the person never clicks the link to confirm their registration, or the address they had the email sent to turns out to have been discontinued, the name remains unusable, even though no one is using the name.

I propose that names that are not confirmed within a week be put back on the available names list.

Thank you for your time!
