A+ guy to call an entire server immature
Quick history lesson S head

The concept of a Monk is not unique to Norrath. The entire Monk class is HEAVILY based off existing lore. Shaolin Shadow Boxing and the Wu’Tang Sword style are both critical features of the Shaolin Monks. Everquest not only recognizes this obvious fact, they celebrate it in game (Master Ton Po, Master Wu). Saying that the combination of “Wu” and “Tang” somehow compromises the integrity of the game and violates the naming policy is - simply put - ignorant. There are a variety of reasons (that I have detailed in other posts) on why Wu’Tang is in fact the ultimate tip of the hat to classic EQ and the only reasonable surname for my character to have. It is actually quite confusing to new players who I am running through the Crypt of Dalnir when I DO NOT HAVE MY BIRTH RIGHT ATTACHED TO MY NAME

The fact that my requests are not only flat out ignored but openly laughed about by the staff only adds to my embarrassment for the staff (Fatnar). Not only is it immersion breaking for me NOT to have the surname, it also goes against the very reason this server exists – nostalgia and FUN.
