He's referring to me nuking various surnames in EC.

Do not form phrases or sentences with your names.

Do not make word plays or duplicate famous people or copyrighted material.

Do not name yourself after religious or political figures.

Do not make immersion breaking names.

Do no make offensive names.

Do not try and BS me on what kind of alternate meaning your name really holds, you know what you're doing.

Those are just a few of the guidelines, just follow the policy, have fun in EQ.

Some guides won't care as much as others, staff discretion. I have been doing sweeps. As a rule, even if offensive, I give folks another chance to choose another name. Once a guide removes your ability to have a surname it is very difficult or impossible to get one back (i.e. petition a GM and hope for the best), so don't screw up your second chance.

Changing a bunch of names is pretty terrible for the community tbh. EQ, more so than any other game is a place where your reputation matters.

This particular thread is about last names so you have nothing to worry about... for now.

[Zemus]

Well ok then. Nuke away.

Question: If you believe your name to possibly be breaking one of these rules, can you petition yourself to get ahead of it and request a change or just play the waiting game and see if it ever gets caught or petitioned?

Do we have to petition from the account w the character we want a name changed on it or can we make that petition on our main account if we have the proper credentials?

[I Felt Nostalgic]

R.I.P. half the server surnames, LOL!

[Kirdan]

Hope they don't stop at surnames.

[I Felt Nostalgic]

Hope they don't stop at surnames.

Maybe there will actually be some good XP camps open then.

Namechanged. Namechanged. Namechanged. None of you are free from sin.

It shouldn't matter, all surname changes you will need to log your toon for anyways. Easier to find you online if you are playing on the acct you petitioned on.
