Names are fine until they get reported, then the naming policy is enforced in full. Just like it says in the rules.

And unless you're a repeat offender or using something especially egregious, the worst they'll do is just rename your character to Gibatak.

If MMORPG players were around when God said, "Let there be light" they'd have called the light gay, and plunged the universe back into darkness by squatting their nutsacks over it.

No im not shitting you. A Female Erudite named Laquisha Bonisha is obviously a skinny white kid playing, and the rules aren't very specific, especially the second rule I linked. Have a nice day. We live in a politically correct world where liberals are offended by an NFL team being called the Redskins, I'd rather know beforehand.

Big deal if it's a white kid. If Little Whitey wants to fantasize about being a smart, elegant, woman of colour, who is anyone else to judge?

I gave my Erudite a Swahili name, btw.

Half the people on this server have names that violate the naming policy. It doesn't exactly seem enforced, I wouldn't worry about it.

The GMs really need to start enforcing it. My immersion is so low atm [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

OP was seriously racist, though.

Lets all petition every single name we see that violates the policy then. It should either be enforced and remain the naming policy, or it should be removed from the rules. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
