Name Changes

[fadetree]

Hmmm. I gotta say, Nagoya, it's anatomical reference part that really sinks owmahballz. That is above and beyond any mitigation from RP reasons. It is a clear and unambiguous violation from the stated server rules.
That said, I think Skarlorn is kind of a jerk about the names thing. I don't really like obviously wrong names like owmahballz or mahdickhertz, etc., but there are less wrong names that yes, COULD possibly be argued about whether they meet some hypothetical standard of 'fitting' within a made up context about magic and elves, or whether they possibly could refer to some kind of real english or other language words. That kind of thing I think is just silly and kind of mean-spirited. People like their names and they put a lot of thought into them. Sometimes Skarlorn comes off as being on a witch hunt and thinks of himself as the final arbiter. I used to think he was more or less kidding but I'm not sure anymore. Anyway, I am for obvious name violation changes, but I think it should be leniently applied in other cases.
