At the time of writing, the testnet has a lot of reorgs happening, on average 10 uncle blocks per one tx, which can make you experience slow-downs and perhaps you can end up out of sync. Refreshing and resyncing can fix your issues if you notice that you are out of sync.
At the start, there is a limit of 2 name registers. There are multiple reasons for this. The name registers are pretty cheap and it's easy to spam the network and register (squat) names. Please register your favorite name that you would like to reserve for Mainnet and broadcast your profile with it. :)
As always, every contribution and feedback is noted and appreciated, happy testing and see you in the community on Discord and Telegram!
