So the court only ends if the person admits to guilt. Sounds like the dictionary definition of a kangaroo court. Or would it be a wildebeest court? Not sure what the African counterpart to a kangaroo would be.

The case has already been thrown out as no facts have been entered into evidence to show that the person both knew and intended to be named after a bakketbawl player. Court is adjourned, no tag backs.

Well really on P99 the fact is is that the GMs are judge, jury, and executioner. There is no jury of peers.

If the enforcement of the rules were consistent, the name Ramal Modo is banned simply because it is a famous person backwards. Period. No need for admission of guilt or "proof." We all know it's not a coincidence though lol

It is only recently that I found out people actually keep a list of names that violate the naming policy and they are only enforced when whistleblowers inform the staff. I can't (can) believe that a group of sycophantic nerds actually does this. They should focus on getting XP (which something tells me they struggle to do)

The naming policy should be modified to something that can be consistently enforced. Vulgarity is a no brainier.

"Ramal Modo" could very well be an Erudite name, it should actually -not- be banned simply because it's a basketball players name backwards. It's actually clever. Also, how many neckbeards can name NBA players in the first place, let alone backwards. In addition, in "classic" people had these types of names all the time.

The thing is - there is a ton of stupid rule lawyering on this server and "the rules are the rules" with no jury of peers. Rule lawyering non-offensive obscure names is ridiculous. However, "the rules are the rules" just like fighting over camps and mobs, and we make the bed we sleep in.

I already know that 'axed' is a racist jab by the forum's resident white supremacist, but what's the deal with 'bakketbawl?'

I didn't have anything deleted or contact any staff about RNF content.

It was probably because they saw stuff the guy posted about demographics etc

You're doing a great job shitting things up here. Try to focus on yourselves.

Truth drop

This is a civil trial, and I would argue given the lower threshold for evidentiary proof than a criminal trial, by a preponderance of the evidence a jury could reasonably infer the defendant's intent. In this case, fraudulent misrepresentation. An expert witness could testify as to the statistical improbability of making the name completely randomly without knowledge of the truth. With this information, the jury would infer that a reasonable person in the defendant's position had knowledge that the representation was false.

Add in the compounding circumstance that the defendant had not one, but TWO PhD's (though the jury is still out on the falsity of this claim).

Secondly, to think science IS subjective is objectively nonsense. Google 'denial syndrome', or 'climate change NASA,' 'climate change UN,' 'climate change EPA.'

I don't feel like finding a way to format the name rules post but -

Common words and phrases that would not be found in the time, place and setting of EverQuest (e.g. Switchblade, Phaser, Toaster, Cannabis).

"Bakketbawl" - besides being racist (we can't actually "prove" that though but that doesn't matter) - is a black-and-white name violation. It's "basketball" with altered spelling. Go in game and /petition it. The judge/jury/executioner GM will in fact find it in violation.

The name "Bobbarker" was banned after 10 years on this server because a sycophant reported the name. My friend doesn't want to play anymore. This is an outrage.

At this point I am going scorched earth on the name violation bullshit.

Why don't you get some xp instead? :o

I enjoyed seeing Bobbarker sitting at EC tunnel. I remember seeing that on blue years ago and on green for recently.

:(
