There are also a lot of illegal names on green..

I sort of agree with OP, but he/she plays on red.

Verdict is delete thread and ban OP.

You may delete the thread, but please don't ban me for sharing my feelings about important elf related subjects in a safe, kind, and thoughtful way.

And this is the internet, you can use whatever pronouns or adjectives you feel appropriate ! )

Well, except maybe racist ones.

The only name I ever saw that I actively disliked was the Druid “Hatecrimes” on Blue

[magnetaress]

After studying the problem intently the last few days I have discovered the one thing that is most apparent and obvious from a concrete and empirical perspective.

People with sassy names are usually: Really angry people, communists, the first to start and get on a /list, a member of an 'elite guild', didn't put all their starting points in charisma, believe Hollywood is a real place and not a druids name. And need to seek lots of help.

My recommendation for these people to heal, is to try red99, it is very accepting of oddly named characters like 'dickbutt'.

No thanks you can keep them.

Lol -- this is a pathetic thread and pathetic OP. Personally -- had my surname taken. (One I've had for nearly a decade on Blue). Meanwhile name after name exists that can be considered a rule violation and it will continue.
Hell -- even the GM names are breaking naming conventions. (See Galach)

Why waste time on this? How does this improve the server? Classic EQ was not "roleplaying" to this degree, ever. Just incredibly pointless.

I haven't been playing recently, but the naming situation on green/teal when I was was awful. Felt like every 1 in 3 people had a stupid, inappropriate name.

I feel like it’s 1 in 5. Shout out to the Erudite named Azzblaster in Qeynos Hills yesterday

Ok yeah, I'm probably overexaggerating.

[Tnair]

Is there actual GM interest in enforcing the naming policy? I've been assuming the current staff has several higher priorities and/or personally disagrees with the rule. Because it seems like more than half the people on green violate the name rules.

EDIT: that'll teach me to post before I read all the way through the thread
