You've just contradicted your argument about "trying to introduce gray area where it doesn't exist." I'm personally not opposed to names being changed, but I couldn't agree more with branamil's point that it could have been handled with more tact.

It doesn't send a very good message when names are changed that don't appear to violate the naming policy at all.

4.16 The Project 1999 Naming Policy

Character names in EverQuest should be thematically consistent with the high-fantasy environment of EverQuest
You can't role play as an elephant. Rule broken name changed. I'd like to retract my original statement that this is not a violation as it clearly is. I'd also like to apologize to everyone for my original oversight and look forward to continually immersing our server.

That's why I give everyone a good chance to tell me their RP reason before I add them to THE LIST.

I do not know this Mauricio guy, but I would also like to provide this reference in an attempt to help Mauricio get his character name Winchester reinstated.

Quote:
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.)
As I am fairly certain the name Winchester could be a first name, and probably is to a number of people out there. Furthermore I have no doubt that this would have been a first name used in a similar medieval time that it is assumed that EverQuest adheres to.

According to this rule stipulation, the name Winchester should be reinstated, as it did not also contain a surname of Rifle, or Arms, or any variation thereof...

Thank you for your consideration.

Some nice stasi shit going on here, well done.

Knights who say ni needs to be reported immediately because that name belong to the Monty Phyton universe and not the Everquest universe.

Please erase them from the server.

Nothing personal here, just keeping the cleanse going.
