naming policy rules... what are they?

[oldhead]

Is there an official post?

I searched naming policy and didnt find much but a thread of people bitching about non RP names.

[oldhead]

Is this the only rule?

- Character renaming can and will occur if a player’s name is offensive. (GM Discretion)


What exactly is offensive?

I know a player named iheal that got renamed.

"I know it when I see it."

[oldhead]

im assuming a GM said that....

Which GM is the resident name nazi then so I can ask them.

Follow this guideline.

If, when rolling a toon, you ask yourself "I wonder if the GMs will make me change this name?", then you should probably think of a different name.

All it takes is a little common sense.

lol yea, if youre already second guessing your name its probably not a good idea to use it

its easy to joke and say that... but the names I pick are fine by most servers rules.

Some even fine by SoD's strict RP rules. Some would not pass SoD RP name rules.

So you can say "if you second guess the name you shouldnt pass it" it all depends on the rules.

Well SoD is crap now anyway, no need to bring up that garbage. It used to be good.

people's names have been changed before randomly, there's no real rhyme or reason to it... you just have to hope you don't get struck randomly by lightning i guess, because for every story i've heard about someone getting their name changed i see 100 names that are worse than the name in question that have had that name for weeks...
