[14:33] nilbog: is there a reason jeremy has the prefix ron? removing that shit.
09[22:05] Uthgaard: seemed funny at the time

Even when they were offensive, I'd have fun renaming them. ******cock? Poof, you're now Nigerianchicken.
Penetrated Frombehind (my rogue) got renamed.

It wasn't just the surname either. Supposedly Penetrated is a bad rogue name that needed to be changed lol. What did his name get changed to you ask.

Pickpocket.

Edit: I quit playing as him after that. It's just not the same imo, even tho he was only like lvl 30 at the time.

I remember when pairing your forename and surname to make a comical compound word or phrase was novel and amusing.

I was tempted to do a response like

"I was gonna say "I remember when you were clever, funny and original." However, I don't think you have been any of those in your entire life."

I don't think I will post it though.

It was, until about 4/5 months in to the server when a bunch of whiny bitches spammed the forum about every name they didn't agree with.

This server was built in praise of Everquest. Braad had the Surname in Praise of the guy that designed the game. So basically he got it taken away for doing the same thing you guys did.

Exactly....I put that in my petition...Nothing yet =( and it is just not the same for sure...

That does seem like reallllly small potatoes.

But the character name Publicurination is a-okay.

Once again the people running the server can enforce the rules at their discretion but I am kind of surprised that Braad would be targeted out of the numerous name violations. Real life themed names seem to be more the rule than the exception.

On live I had an alt halfing named Eyeingyocrotch which I used to do the SRoTU quest.

guide who's only job is to be the name police. hell, i'll app for that position myself
