Default Name Violations

SO recently on the Red Server the Gm's have been cracking down on the names to a level that is crazy.


BUT

They let the leader of the largest guild on the server to have the name 'Colgate' He created that name to make fun of the previous zerg leaders teeth. Also it is a trademarked company, Which is an illegal name.


Inconsistent GM's

/tip of the hat to you sir.

"Colgate" -- or "Keal'gath" -- is actually an old Gaelic term for bravery.

Hope that is of assistance!

habitational name from Colgate in Sussex or Colgates in Kent, which are named with Old English col ‘charcoal’ + geat ‘gate’, indicating a gate leading into woodland where charcoal was burned.

perfectly good fantasy name

Reguardless of whatever roots the name "colgate" may have, it is a copyright held by a major company and a brand name known worldwide. It's use as a name is clearly linked directly to the fact that is a toothpaste brand and for no other reason.

I'm in favor of banning anyone whose name is not STRICTLY RELATED OT THEIR RACE/CLASS nature as a roleplayer. A perfect example of someone with flawless naming is "Doabarrelroll Starfox" the Dark Elf Cleric, and Ghostface Killah, the Dwarven Rogue. Wait...
