character names
Well i'm been playing on 1999 server for about a month now, and i'm baffled at the character names i see all over the server. I know there isn't a name filter when making a character and gm's dont do anything when seeing almost any name characters have. but if we want this to be classic (and a little more civilized) if there were some standards on what your character name could be.
I mean who wants to group with "ipoopalot" or "Twink" or any # of names that would never have passed on a live server. I'm ranting alittle but would like to know what others think about this. | ||

not everyone wants to use a name that sounds like a tolkein character, and frankly i dont think preserving your immersion should be anybody else's problem. Sure if theyve got an offensive name by all means nerf it but just cause you can find it in the dictionary doesnt mean we shouldnt be allowed to use it as a name. Quote:

Having a randomly_generated_fantasy_name_01 isn't the issue here, it's people having a distinct lack of imagination by using names such as:
Kellycurtis Maxitaxi Miragul Metatron Grenade Kickass Misterbob Hotpockets and so on (as original poster, I just did a random /w all) | ||

Well being the character Grenade, I picked it because I am a wizard, high explosive direct damage, and in the case of a grenade, sharapenal ( AE Nuke ) I don't just make names I actually think about my names, so when you say we have no imagination, think about your name. It's probably like Dentoramis or something, how is that imaginative. The random selector can give you that shit, that's not that imaginative. | |||

I've never petitioned a name, but glad a reporting mechanism is in-place. Understood that you have a lot of work ahead of you. Okay, back to our regularly scheduled flame war.

You're absolutely right, there's not a single wood elf ranger online right now named Legolias, Laegolas, Legolass, or any variation thereof. That is entirely unacceptable.
