What is the reason of this whole naming policy thing?
If only someone had answered this question already. Oh wait:

Does this mean we were tired of getting spammed with repetitive, bogus rename requests from people who just bought an account / wanted a clearly retarded name? Hell Yes
There's a little button by my name in the quote. When your knees stop jerking, you should click it. Go on.

I hope you find what you're looking for, but it will never be the way you want it, even if they were able to make it 100% exactly like it was at launch.

Err unless I am mistaken wasn't the only recent change to the naming policy that they would no longer do name changes by request?

Like as far as I can remember it was always against the rules to name your character Mickey Mouse or whatever, am I wrong?

Yes, there was. Posted by Wenai, clearly labelled "ROUGH DRAFT", and it wasn't much different from what's there now. Which is why it's so hilarious to watch the usual teardrops fall from the usual people, over something that didn't really change.

TLDR: The only change that happened, was we're not going to rename people at their own behest any longer - and you can thank those who abused the privelege and spammed the shit out of staff with retarded name requests.

Players may continue to request surname changes. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

can we get a custom name change if we approach you with our bad names first, instead of you having to hunt us?
Assuming that we have the time and/or inclination to "hunt" you down: sure.

Who may I direct my complaints to if a guide gives you a surname without your request for said surname?

WILL I BE "TRALINA REMOVAL" FOREVER?
