but no go. I upgraded my beta account to be able to play with my newly received software, but there was no beta character. Help?

All beta characters were wiped before the servers went live. The character name in the top slot of your account should have been reserved for you if you tried to make a character with the same name, but other than that nothing will carry over into retail.

Thanks for the info. Obviously, I wasn't clear on how it would work.

The name won't show, it's just not available to anyone except you. Create a new character and use that name (as it's been reserved just for you or at least is should be).

I assume by "the name wasn't there" you mean the "Elder of Atys" title ?

I think after this first week where they HAVE to focus on getting folks in the game, all this little stuff will get more attention. I also "upgraded" my beta account as well as pre-ordered and dont have either my armlet, nor my "Elders" title/emote... I can still play and thats the main thing for now... As soon as they get lists of those of us with the petty problems like this, I am positive we'll be squared away... Until then enjoy Atys... It will be our home for awhile :)
