Some rules are just over bearing unless there's real disregard or blatant abuse going on. It's against the law to fly an American flag if it is not in good condition but I've seen tattered and even worse looking ones fly over businesses and homes. Just take a gander at the list of rules for the flag:

Now imagine the cop showing up to enforce these laws.

I am not advocating for crude or obscene names but if someone wants the name Poptarts Rgood... who cares....

Lame as fuck name. If you’re gonna abuse the naming policy at least make it good.

This is what bothers me more than the non-immersive names. Majority I’ve seen are just lazy as shit and boring. Rogue = Stabby McPiercer. Cleric= Nores Foryou. Enchanter = Enchantyress. If I see one of these LFG, it’ll take a lot for me to even want to send them a tell.

And yes, the inherent irony of my own name isn’t lost on me.

Heh, my standard character name in single player games is Stabby for melee types, Zappy for magic types or Shooty for ranged types...

People have burned American flags in America and the flag code was used to arrest them. The case went up, if i recall correctly, to the supreme court and they ruled that the first amendment allows people to burn, trample etc flags as a freedom of speech issue. So the flag code is pretty much unconstitutional.

Tutorial guy "Soandso" would not fit this criteria. Poor guy.

I can not believe you assholes are this serious about this.

You fucking assholes are seriously having people banned because of their 'grievous violations' to your fucking pious sanctity when their name is shit like Rickmoranis or something.

You gotta actually give me a fucking break with this level of patronizing bullshit. It's so fucking arrogant. You gotta be some kind of fucked in the head to think that your "immersion" or whatever it is you're so fucking jealously guarding is broken by some guy whose name is "Stabby Daggy."

Seriously though -- what's the angle? What are you guys actually 'protecting' or positing? Why do you fucking care about other people's names if they're not ACTUALLY vulgar? Like come the fuck on. Grow up.

You all keep coming back to this phrase "abuse the naming policy" to make it sound legitimate or fair when in reality it's just a bunch of fucking whiney tattle-tales crying about shit they don't like. Then you fall back on that stupid ass phrase because it 'sounds important' Fucking 'abuse'... yeah. I love throwing around buzzwords to make myself seem important too, guys, but get a fucking grip.

No one gets banned for violating the naming policy. They just get their name changed.

What are you actually protecting? Why do you care about other people’s names if they violate the P99 naming policy?

Seriously though — what’s the angle?

There was a guy on Green named Ever Quest. GMs made him change his name.

Sad really. Guy snagged "Ever" as a first name and ran with it. Looked like he was a shadow knight too, so the questing will indeed go on forever.

This is a hard sell story, here to say. I don't think anyone would buy that story.
