Love how people bitched that Cyrius was overly zealous at changing names and now GM's are getting reamed for not being name police.

ive run into a similar problem with ambrotos regarding inappropriate names. he responds with sarcasm- assumes youre petitioning for some petty personal vendetta.

What name did you petition? What level was the player?

I am loathe to post this because there are several asshats out there who will take advantage of this and try to twist things.

Here is the deal:

if someone is a level 1 named JonLucPicard then we will probably change that characters name. If the character manages to make it to level 10 or 15 then we are going to let it go. Is it a copywrited name? yes. But i'm not going to fuck up my trade logs for such a minor issue.

If the name is really inappropriate or has foul language in it then we will change it regardless of the level and it is always up to the guides discretion.

The problem is that people frequently petition about a name that they think is bad that is just making them have seizures of upset-ness daily that doesn't really warrant a name change.

I wouldn't change Xantille on red because Who cares if there is a character named Sir Xantille. Engelbert aka muffins threw major fits about that one and had all of his buddies petition about it.

I DID change Handpartytowel because of what it is. i mean...if you don't know what a Handparty towel is then i recommend you familliarize yourself with urbandictionary.com .

Here is a short list of names that you could argue are against naming policy but i'm not going to change them because they aren't severe enough for me to fuck up my trade logs:

botnet
pwny
Shinedown (it's a band right?)
blazinelz
susanbanthony
getsome
hasbinbad
Portsche
Tpand

If you act entitled or demanding or act like someone named 'bigbird' needs to have their name changed OR ELSE!!!!!1111!!1!!!1! then i don't blame him for the attitude.

If you have a legitimate problem with him please feel free to message me with ss's or logs or w/e and i'll try to resolve it.

but i suspect it might just be people trying to force ambrotos to change a level 50 character's name

how is Portsche and pwny against the naming policy lol?

Also, I had a rogue named Penetrated that got renamed at 30 lol.

Seems like anything and everything is fair game depending on how a guide/gm feels at the time.

Urbandictionary.com has no reference to this Handparty Towel. I tried HandParty Towel and Hand Party Towel. I am very curious.

The closest thing I found on urbandictionary.com was Tina Towel Party. Is that what you meant?

Enlighten me please.

I was not confused before opening this thread now after reading it all, I am very confused.

The rules are very flexible and some people can get away with stuff but I don't know why or when... oh well, as long as Scavrefamn isn't against the rules so that's all that matters.
