Thanks, I’m not offended. Firstly, our opinions should be irrelevant. It’s the rules.

But since you asked, it actually does suck to log into a Tolkienesque fantasy land to roam the wilds, smite evil, or infiltrate the goodly city of Qeynos...and see a guy called Portsfoplat or Sirnobhead or Stabziez Urfacelol. It breaks our immersion. This is D&D, not a Blizzard game.

I still have fun playing EQ, of course, and I’m not freaking out over any name, but I would like to exert an influence on the server in the direction in which I would like it to go. Making the original post will have the effect of encouraging those who value the naming rules and perhaps discouraging those who would flout them. I hope others will also petition bad names. Then it will be up to the staff.

/shrug to each their own I guess. I don't really get bent out of shape about inoffensive names even if they are immersion breaking. It's just a game
