Canon, in the context of a fictional universe, comprises those novels, stories, films, etc., that are considered to be genuine or officially sanctioned, and those events, characters, settings, etc., that are considered to have existence within the fictional universe. In order for a setting to appear cohesive, especially in fictions that contain multiple parts, both creators and audiences sometimes find it useful to define what has and has not "actually happened" in that universe.
Material that is considered canon usually comes from the original source or author of the fictional universe, while spin-offs and adaptations to other media are more likely to be non-canon and fan fiction is almost always non-canon.

So my point is, how do you get names from them in that circumstance?

well if a TF isn't activated for 90days it's name goes up for grabs as if it never had it in the first place.

Thanks for that, you're right (of course), but I was only able to bag two names, seems whoever has the last name activated it recently, and because there's no logs, I don't know how long I'll have to wait.
Damn that sucks, guess I'll have to keep stalking them though.

Yeah, but that's cause you're a filthy scumbag.

Would you surrender one of your names just because some guy asked you to?
But hey, it's worth a shot

Why not trade names? That can work.

It's not that, the guy seems very inactive, and has only made ONE POST since 2003!
Chances are if I PM'ed him, he probably won't see the message, besides, if I wait, it might become inactive for long enough and I could poach the name off him!

*Wipes tear away from eye* God, I love how Decepticons go about things...
You know, Hollow... I'd be happy to give you Gaihawk or Carnivac (that's if you ever wanted either of them).

I'm sorry, Tam..
Some would prefer to fight to the death for a canon name, yes?
