The "/target_custom_next" and "/target_name" slash commands (and possibly others of the /target family) don't actually use the correct name of renamed Mastermind pets.  For example, on my Mercenaries Mastermind, my three "soldier" pets are named "Jarhead," "Grunt," and "Florence".  If I "/target_name Jarhead" it simply doesn't work.

 

HOWEVER, if I "/target_name soldier" it does work!  It seems to be honoring the original, unmodified names, and not the renamed names.  Similarly, "/target_name florence" does not work, but "/target_name medic" does.

Yes. It is working as intended.

This is not a bug.

If someone posts a reply quoting me and I don't reply, they may be on ignore.

(It seems I'm involved with so much at this point that I may not be able to easily retrieve access to all the notifications)

Some players know that I have them on ignore and are likely to make posts knowing that is the case.

But the fact that I have them on ignore won't stop some of them from bullying and harassing people, because some of them love to do it. There is a group that have banded together to target forum posters they don't like. They think that this behavior is acceptable.

Ignore (in the forums) and /ignore (in-game) are tools to improve your gaming experience. Don't feel bad about using them.

Hmm ok.  I mean, it certainly feels like a bug to the end user if a "target" command with a name in it doesn't target a thing with that name, and possibly targets something that's not named that.  Would this be better as a feature request, then?
