^ I care. Blatantly offensive and/or disgusting names detract from my gaming experience and I will say so. You will not stop me from doing so.

I definitely agree that bad names should be changed or altered to maybe one from some random list of generated fantasy names. I am sad but I fear my name may fall under the bad side of the strict rules of naming ones character.

On live when I started my character was a Dark Elf Shadowknight named Darkvex. Took me about a month or a little more to get to level 20. I was so excited because I became Darkvex Dreadknight the level 20 SK.

I love my name and it has served me well in the years of RP and playing games, however, if it does violate and I have to take one for the team to get rid of these terrible... they arent even names really, then I will and I'll be the first to have a new name.

I don't think you understand how much the staff hates being bothered consistently by inane shit. The people with these names aren't causing a problem for them or they'd already have been changed. You on the other hand and just being a twat, the staff here ISN'T to ensure "Your playing experience" is how it was on live. In fact, the devs and staff have repeatedly said that if you don't like the way shit is- you know where the door is.

tl;dr

The staff hates you more than the people with these names because you're being a whiny little bitch expecting them to act like the carebear GMs on live.

Amelinda is on record as being very against retarded names, and not minding putting in time to change them.

I think you overestimate her threshold for caring. I've personally turned a couple people in to her. One was like Alexisgay? Which of course is a horrid name, but if someone wants to be called Bradd Pitt I'm sure they couldn't care less.

The policy is just there so no one can bitch if their name gets changed. It is far from enforced to a T

You turned in someone named Alexisgay? Lol that's funny if true, but now I'm unsure whether we are having a serious discussion or not

This is very true. I made a human SK to buy a iksar necro buddy his spells in EFP sewers.. To laugh at him i named it 'ihatelizards' and Amelinda and i were chatting before i had even made it into the sewers from my spawn point.
