What's important is to not turn this into a shitfest for the staff.

Let me clue you boys in to my methods of handing over the ILLEGALs to our Police.

First, upon zone in, I announce to the zone that I am going to be reporting anyone with an ILLEGAL name. I offer people the chance to step forward...

It's fair to only petition people who you see face to face. So you have to find them. I like shouting about what part of the zone I'm in to increase the feeling of dread as I approach with my LIST in hand.

When I see someone, I give them a chance to explain themselves. A couple of people have actually given good RP reasons for their name and so my immersions were safe. Add everyone else to the LIST.

Do NOT petition each person individually.

%T does NOT work in the petitions, the GMs don't get the data.

Make a list of names and then petition them all at once; or create a list in the Petitions/Forum section.

Keep in mind that staff are busy with probably more important petitions and if you spam them with 20 new tickets, it's going to be the equivalent of trolling them. The staff wants to change the names, but you need to help them in a way that isn't super fucking annoying and also presents them with data in an easy to find format when they are bored and have a few minutes to CLEANSE norrath.
I feel like you are encroaching on Baler's coattails here, man.

This is pretty much exactly what his original list was in server chat. You better get permission before you start leeching his material. Just sayin'.
