I'd like an answer to this as well, but GM Llandris has stopped responding to my hails..

It seemingly was only *our* guildmember presumably targeted for their GoT-themed name only. Pretty lame when an entire guild is allowed to run around infringing on HBO's intellectual property..
HBO has property rights in perpetuity until the end of time over elf names in a video game from a time when they were airing hooker sex?

nah lol

sorry, i see my sarcasm didn't shine through.. i think it's silly to even bother messing with character names in a free, emulated version of a 20-year old game.

That my guild member was targeted, is what pisses me off.

Don’t make stupid names and you won’t be a target.

Why specifically target GoT names? There's plenty of other fantasy type naming going on already. It's a slippery slope that leads to us all being forced to get names from the random name generator.

I wouldnt see anything wrong with Irontoe... great surname for a Blacksmith (especially a Dorf one).

Also would suit a monk, can't enter a bar in a KungFu movie without getting in a fight with the local 'bad guy gang', Ironshin, Swiftarm, Tigerclaw, Stonefist.... and so on.

Once you could just change them yourself every 7 days or whatever (PoP era?) I used to troll my friends doing exactly that, then wait and see how long it took them to notice.

On very early Rallos Zek there was a druid named Azure Sleeves.. I thought that name was the funniest thing Ive ever seen, cus it was like, right when everyone first found out about that amazing high AC item.

I thought it was funny he was like "ill roleplay, and name myself after the shining blue sky that blankets the karanas, Azure"

then by the time he was 20 he was like.. "lol ima make my surname Sleeves."

EQ was the best game, but there was never any roleplay in it that lasted longer than a few levels.

Altho some freak half elf did try to have emote sex with me once at the bottom of guk back in 2000.
