Character names in EverQuest should be thematically consistent with the high-fantasy environment of EverQuest. These guidelines apply both forenames and surnames, and also to the combination produced by a forename and surname. (For example, the first name Clint and the last name Eastwood are both acceptable names separately, but Clint Eastwood is not.) The server staff can, in accordance with all described rules and ultimate discretion, provide assistance with surname changes, including names with multiple capital letters and/or a single accent grave (`). Examples of this are Kirn V`Last, Harl McTarnigal, Leeza MacTeagan. The server staff will be happy to change your surnames on request, however we will not provide forename changes unless the name violates the naming policy. The following names are considered unacceptable. - Vile, profane, rude, or racist names including common swear words, anatomical references, racial slurs, and homonyms of these words. - Combinations of words that produce an offensive result (e.g. Hugeazz, Tug Mcgroin). - Names of religious, occult, or significant historic origin (e.g. Jesus, Allah, Satan, Stalin). - Copyrighted or trademarked names of products, characters, services, or concepts (e.g. Bigmac, Marlboro, Sony). - Names from popular media. These names can be either fictional (e.g. Rambo, Darthvader) or non-fictional (e.g. Garth Brooks, Pierce Brosnan, George Washington, Michael Jordan). - Common words and phrases that would not be found in the time, place and setting of EverQuest (e.g. Switchblade, Phaser, Toaster, Cannabis). - Proper names from EverQuest (e.g. Rathe, Karana). This also includes the first or last name of any significant EverQuest NPC (e.g. Dorn, Trumpy, Karn). - The names of past or current Customer Support Representatives or developers of Project 1999 (e.g. Nilbog, Rogean, Derubael, Sirken). - Names chosen with the intent or possessed with the effect of harming the reputation of a player or Customer Service Representative. - Forenames containing titles within them, such as, but not limited to: The, Lord, Lady, Master, King, Knight, Sir, Father (e.g. Sirtallon, Lordeagle, Mothermaggy, Darksister). - Names that contain sentences (Ikillorcs), phrases (Ontop), or two or more words that do not form descriptive compound words (Petcarbob, Diediedie and Tablechair). - Descriptive compound words are allowed in first names and are encouraged in surnames (e.g. Treehugger, Giantslayer). - Descriptive compound words (each separate part of the word and the entire word) must otherwise adhere to all other naming rules. - Fantasy-oriented names which are easily recognized from popular existing media (e.g. Merlin, Gandalf, Drizzt). - Names where the combination of the first and last name forms a phrase or violate a previous rule (e.g. Crymea River, Bran Muffin, Story Thyme). - For all of the above, misspellings and alternative spellings (such as spelling it backwards) of the word or words are also unacceptable. - For all of the above, any foreign variations are also unacceptable. If a player petitions a name he or she feels is offensive in a foreign language, all rules set forth shall be applied. - Above all else, you may not choose character or guild name which, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Project 1999 Customer Service Staff, is deemed to be offensive or improper.

I'm just getting bored. It was funny to see all of the reactions to the name though. Nearly everyone I passed said something about it. Deep down, I knew it was a matter of time before some incel with some dumb name was gonna hit that report button.
I need meta material to keep me occupied til green. Who got some good eq meta ideas? <No Time To Rez> kinda died out. Here are a few ideas: Get lots of druids and encs to cast illusion: tree at EC tunnel ent and create a Tree Wall so noone can get in. hmm that's all I got for now

Changing that name doesn't seem very classic to me.

Usually people did it to avoid tells, or best was when they created a barcode name with 3-5 of their pals so when you targeted them in PVP it was hard to differentiate if you had the cleric targeted, the tank, or the rogue etc. Basically barcode names only create confusion and problems, and chances are a year from now the novelty would have worn off, and the guy would have been sending in a petition to get it changed due to no one being able to send him tells. Imagine seeing that troll name WTB/WTS an item, or needing a rez then trying to contact him via a tell? TL;DR "Barcode" names are dumb. | |||
