The name graveyard

1). Inconsistent with the fantasy roleplaying genre.

2). Would have never been allowed on live, which the existence of this project is to emulate.

3). Possible accusations of copyright infringement from Columbia Pictures and the estate of Bernard Herrmann.

And you're right, those other names are equally inappropriate. It's just a matter of catching them.

I don't see anything wrong with people's names as long as they don't turn into screen names like. Rumrunner0968, then that's just way out of hand. People are going to play with whatever name they want, and they should be able to as long as it doesn't offend or harass anyone. Would you like to tell me that everyone who used the name Inkie or Inkiesomethingsomething on live, should've had their name changed? If so, please get off your high horse and come back down to reality.

It's not really my high horse. I'm not the one who was subject to a name change. And I'm not the one complaining about name changes. And as I've said countless times before, if you use even a fraction of common sense when choosing a name, it won't be subjected to change.

Bilbus wouldn't have gotten through my name filter either...

I'm not trying to make anyone look bad. You do that just fine yourselves.

There's a big difference between trolling and pointing out that none of us are anywhere near as important or cool as we think we are. That's what I do. And many of us are in desperate need of the reminder....

If a name was allowed on Live, where they have a lot more rules regarding acceptable names, then common sense indicates the name should be allowed on P99, where the only rule is "it cannot be offensive".

My name was acceptable on Live. My name was nuked. I am not the only person who had a name on Live that had their name nuked on P99.

This isn't live though, in so many ways. By your logic you should be coughing up a monthly subscription fee and be subject to MUCH stricter community policing.
