A couple years back a GM went on a naming policy holocaust. I'm glad those dark days are behind us.

Ate a 24 hour unannounced suspension for the surname "Shithouse", despite having it during 2 GM events (Hobby/Uthgaard era) with no action taken at the time.

There is a policy here, in some form [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

The policy is enforced only when it comes to straight-up offensive or swear names. GMs have said that they have a lot of work to do and enforcing the naming policy for anything more than that is simply not a priority at all and not worth their time. It's a policy in name only [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Personally if I was a GM I'd go whole hog with this policy, so I'm sure a lot of people are happy someone like me isn't one. Honestly, most of the server breaks the policy and I'm sure there would be a huge backlash if it was actually enforced.

Ive only seen it really enforced over Profanity and Racism or outright offensive names or surnames. Though im sure if you can make a case to a GM as to why a name is offensive to you they will do something about it.

Knew a guy on Live name Teews Yssup. Kept the name for years before a GM finally stripped the surname.

Policy seems pretty classic here - names last until they're caught or someone complains enough.
