Naming policy a joke?

[Byrjun]

It's completely random as to what's acceptable or not. I petitioned for a pretty acceptable roleplaying style barbarian name that would require 2 capitals, and Eunomia denied it. This is in a world of people named stuff like Aids Sandwich and Fart Farterson. It almost feels like the dumb names are preferred.

Couldn't you have kept the name, and just had the same capitalization as everyone else? It doesn't seem random at all, or like the GMs prefer dumb names, it's just that they don't give exceptional names simply because you asked for one.

Make your own server. You could call it Power Puff Bitch Mouthed Hello Kitty Island Adventure Twats Only. No dirty names assholes!

so op joins last month and thinks they're bringing up anything new, suggesting ideas for the server without researching anything, and generally just whining and proly wondering why people here are so "rude" to them

Or the GM's justifiably don't give a shit about the naming policy, period, because it's so trivial relative to the server's other problems. I give them credit for not listening to people whining about superficial nonsense (such as this thread) and doing meaningful work with their volunteer hours rather than devoting time to this.

I also enjoy seeing clever and funny names once in a while. This is such an old game . . . most of the people playing are adults now. People just need to relax and allow themselves a sense of humor. There's more important things to worry about on Project 1999 than player names for fuck's sake.
