| − | == Can Renamed Items be re-renamed? ==
| |
| − | For instance if you make a spelling mistake and want to change the name again, can it be done? [[User:Nanosheep|(nanosheep_inc)]] 04:01, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
| |
| − | : You can as long as you use another Name Tag. Or so I heard -[[User:Mistah Phoenix|Mistah Phoenix]] 07:06, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
| |
| − | : -Confirmed from me. I just used another name tag on a previously named item. [[User:Barbossa|Barbossa]] 15:54, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

| |
| − | Whats the character limit on the names? think this info should be on the page.[[User:Rocketlawnchair|Rocketlawnchair]] 05:54, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

| − | ==Default weapon naming?==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Can you name a default weapon with a name tag? Like, say I wanted to name the default medigun, would that be possible? Or is it just randomly dropped items? [[User:Cleretic|Cleretic]] 15:51, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
| |
| − | :Yes, there is a checkbox to switch to stock weapons. I have a renamed Knife in my backpack, if you would like proof. Search barbossarox on tfitems [[User:Barbossa|Barbossa]] 15:56, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
| |
| − | :now what if you were to rename, say, the shotgun, would this custom name apply to all classes holding the shotgun like it does the Pain Train?--[[User:Zootch|Zootch]] 09:38, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
| |
| − | :yes all classes get the change if they share the item.[[User:Rocketlawnchair|Rocketlawnchair]] 16:37, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
| |
| − | ::No they don't. The [[Shotgun]] is bugged. Only the Engineer's gets a name and the rest appear bugged. {{n}}[[User:Smashman|<span class="bur">Smashman</span>]]<sub> ([[User_talk:Smashman|talk]])</sub> {{bur}} 18:52, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

| − | :::Ha, yeah, my friend named his Shotgun and managed to load both slots of the Heavy and Soldier with shotguns. The renamed one takes the primary (Engi) slot, no matter what class you use. No, it doesn't let you run around with two shotguns; you end up with the default Rocket Launcher/Minigun. I'd like to know what happens with the Pistol; the bug here might just be because the Shotgun is in two different slots in two different classes, while both the Scout and the Engi have [s]it[/s] the Pistol in secondary.

| − | | |
| − | Another point, if you rename a stock weapon then change its name back to default, the stock item remains in your inventory. Adding this to the main article though remove it if you don't think its needed [[User:Scatmanjohn|Scatmanjohn]] 18:20, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

| − | ==Crates and name tags==
| |
| − | do you think it might be worth adding "series 1" to this? "Name Tags can drop randomly, be found when unlocking a crate"? Given that so far, series one crates are the only crates that contain name tags. [[User:Scatmanjohn|Scatmanjohn]] 23:09, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

| − | == Re-Use of Used Name Tag ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | I named 1 of the hats I got from my friend after him. After a few minutes I realized I misspelled his name, I used another Name Tag on it and fixed it. The strange thing is, at the start I had 3 Name Tags, I used one (2 left), then fixed it and had a 2 again. I am not sure but I think if "you"(The user) name something twice while in your possession you will retain extra used Name Tags you have used. I'm not really sure how to say it.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Here's what basically happened:
| |
| − | | |
| − | :1. Have 3 Name Tags
| |
| − | :2. Rename '''Vintage Otolaryngologist's Mirror''' - '''SHAZ'S VINTAGE OTOLARYNGOLOGIST'S MIRROR'''
| |
| − | ::a. Two Name Tags left.
| |
| − | :::A. ''An attempt to make it seem like a real in-game item [In-game, most items appear to be in all caps]''
| |
| − | :3. Rename '''SHAZ'S VINTAGE OTOLARYNGOLOGIST'S MIRROR''' - '''Shaz's Vintage Otolaryngologist's Mirror'''
| |
| − | :4. Two Name Tags remains.
| |
| − | | |
| − | As you can see, Name Tags seem able to be retained. [[User:Danton|Danton]] 14:04, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

| − | :This is most likely a glitch, and not a feature. It happens sometimes with all usable items given reports from various forums. -- [[User:Pilk|Pilk]] <sub>([[User talk:Pilk|talk]])</sub> 14:06, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

| − | == Added specific note about name tag being consumed ==
| |
| − | I just got scammed by believing the other person when they told me that name tags will be returned to your inventory if you "Remove" the name, when in fact this is false. I looked it up here and nothing specifically stated it, so I got scammed in a trade. I'm adding a specific note about the name tag never being retrievable, so people know that you can't get it back once you use it.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Name Tag and Description Tag Similarity ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | The Name Tag and Description Tag look the same. I wasted a Name Tag on something i already "named" because it looked just like my description tag that I was supposed to be using. so i ended up renaming the item what my description was. This should be warned to other people that both Tags are very similar in appearance and everyone should be very cautious when using them and not knowing which one is which.--[[User:Awesome Weegee|Awesome Weegee]] 01:57, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

| − | | |
| − | :Well, perhaps there should be, but most people would probably know it's a Name Tag or Description Tag just by the name of the tag. --[[User:Wintergreen|Wintergreen]] 02:04, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

| − | ::When hovering over the item in your backpack, you are shown the tool's name. It's also visible through the trading window and when you purchase the item from the store. -[[User:Spik3d|Spik3d]] 02:09, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
