I created my long time main on Test Server in about 2003; named him Ancient, which was intended to be an allusion to Ancient Pistol, a character in Henry V.
I logged in for the first time, and about 20 minutes later a GM told me my name was not allowed and changed it to Anciente (after some discussion). I'm pretty sure that was not the result of a petition, and I'm pretty sure it was not offensive; it just violated the letter of the naming conventions at the time.
So somewhere, sometime - there were GMs who cared (even though I disagreed with them).

[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] I stand corrected... I guess some where Gm's did care... Not on Nameless when I got the name change... lol :/
I think it was probably fairly arbitrary, and in 90% of the cases I think the name changes were fair.
