eh, it's just two words put together. However if the player could justify the name based on their character, perhaps in a roleplay aspect. I wouldn't mind in the slightest. Otherwise it just seems like uncreative laziness smushing two words together. Let's be real most of these people aren't roleplaying.

It's a fine line between a name being descriptive of the race/class and someone being lazy. So sure, Rumgut could be acceptable.

I get not everyone has to have the most fantasy world name. People in real life have nicknames too.
So I may mistakenly lump a name into the bunch, thanks for calling me out on that one Maskedmelon.

So your issue is not names that are against naming policy but against lazy unimaginative names? Thats your issue not the P99 Staff or other players issues.

Anything Travolta related is fine imo. "Stayin Alive" ftw.

EDIT: And, anything Bee Gees related is fine too. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Woot! I made the list. Was referred by a guildie... Sadly my character last name was not included.[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Plus is has its own Wiki page...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slow_jam


Similarly...
Baler
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baler

Now, I don't use Wiki as a credible source, but John Deere...
https://www.deere.com/en_US/products...rs/balers.page

Me thinks someone is trying to boost their post numbers.

I have been waiting for this! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
That is in fact correct. Technically Baler is a violation of the Naming Policy! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
Well done Adcid!

Not only that but it's a miss-spelling of a character from another video game.
http://mythipedia.wikia.com/wiki/Balor

Quote:
Balor is the final, and most powerful, incarantion of the Leveler that is seen in the current age of Myth: The Fallen Lords. He is in command of the Fallen Lords, six sorcerers general of terrible power, who are trying to destroy the world with an army of undead, trow giants and terrible beasts.
I've been using the nickname Baler for over 18 years now. Though a few imposters pop up randomly every so often.
Fun fact there was a gnome mage on live back in the day named Baler. Wasn't me. you can find posts by him on alakazam.

Baler,

What are your thoughts on the surname Wu'Tang for a human monk from the streets of Qeynos? Just wondering what a purest like yourself thinks
