The behavior in this thread and in game has been atrocious. It's completely understandable to be upset and/or frustrated, players grow attached to their characters' names and it can be devastating to lose your identity. We get it. But lashing out at staff members and sending threats is completely inexcusable. I created this thread in order to give direction to those who were affected in the last batch of name changes (and perhaps future ones). You are not stuck with your temporary name, you will get a chance to pick one of your choosing.
The naming policy has been around since 2010, so this should not be news to anyone who hasn't read the rules of the server (which we hope you read, prior to playing here). I'll be the first to admit that we have been pretty laid back when it came to names (unless they were offensive/vulgar) but I think we all can agree that it has gotten a little out of hand. We need to adhere to our own policies and apply them to everyone equally. Recent tools have allowed us to view certain names (without a que up) as well as add to the filter once it's changed. If you are wondering why your name was changed but another players name wasn't, you were not being targeted or singled out (as much as you guys like to think so). There is only a few of us, and thousands of players. We only have so many hours to donate per day.
On another note, we do not need players running around harassing others because of names. Leave the search for us, as it is our position to do so.
