Oh man, i thought i was original. As soon as nightfall came out i made a dervish and named him Jizon Diface. It took about 2 years to get banned for that name.

it was only Beemer to know-nothings like you. Bimmer was always the "official" nickname for a BMW. It's pronounced the same as Beemer though. Spelling it out, it was always Bimmer to the "in-crowd".

No I don't own a Bimmer I was just giving you a taste of the Bimmer-driver's brand of contempt.

We could report the leechers and bots for having offensive names? It's not really abuse of the system, we have been forced to use it in such a way.

Yeah, but first we should report all staff characters.

If A-Net is suspending players for names like "Bimmer The Boy," then there's a serious problem with the reporting system. Which may just be since there have been several threads on the topic. And if that's the case, then this just opens up the whole thing for massive abusage! (That jerk won't come down on the price of that thing? - /report Ramdom Name A for innappropriate name!. That SOB kicked my from the party... /Report Random Name B* for innappropriate name!) Hopefully, it won't come to that.

On the other hand, maybe the OP & his buddy just made it up. It seems to me that when it comes to bashing A-Net, everyone just assumes the worst and goes from there. The thing that's missing from the story is screenies. Whatever happened to "SS or it didn't happen?"

Kinda too late to screen it now, but i can ensure u its for real.

Edit: I dont really screen when i /report ppl - and Bimmer didnt know anything about my (Yes, me - and only me) project - till it was kinda too late ^_^

Well he took it like a man, and laughed

On topic: NCSoft /Anet / whoever it is that runs their support and decides who should and should not get banned is awful at it.

Keep the report function but only make it so you can report people for botting and leeching.

Dont like a name? Well maybe someone doesnt like yours. Get over it.

Feel like your getting verbally abused or sick of spamming? Ignore them... letting it bother you is up to you.

Got Scammed? Your fault you're stupid, and if you can honestly say there is no way you could have known... learn from your mistakes.

Anet should then review the reports and figure out if someone is actually botting/leeching and not being reported for leeching just cause someone doesnt like their name.

People now have WAY too thin skin. People get butt hurt way to easily. Toughen up; dont go cry to Anet.

Well I had some one try and get me banned for A S L A N cause it is a Christian name and they are not and they wanted the name. But Bimmer? what idiot said that this is the spelling is just an idiot. Beemer as ALWAYS been the spelling just look at the vanity plates. no self righteous self centered idiot would put that spelling on thier 325i Give it a rest.

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=beemer Look here..

or for those of you that do not know how to use that or spell it says..and I quote...

2. beemer A common misspelling of the nickname bimmer for BMWs.
1: "I wish I had a beemer!"
2: "It's bimmer, you idiot."

Nuff said

People are only as smart as they think they are. You can comfuse them buy telking them how smart they are.

A11Eur0 Man you are smart. I never knew that. WOW thanks for the information.

Shursh · Jan 29, 2009, 02:48 PM // 14:48

remind me not to be your friend lol...friends don't let friends report each other.

Wild Karrde · Jan 29, 2009, 03:16 PM // 15:16

Who cares if its Beemer or Bimmer seriously.... if you think your "in" cause you know its bimmer... get over yourself.

And having Bimmer in your name is not advertising and shouldnt be ban-able, other wise every ranger with the name legolas, every sin with the name naruto, every one whos got the name sponge bob, etc should be banned.... this logic is just stupid (even though I hate sins named naruto and rangers named legolas)

this is true we have no proof of this happening except for the fact that we have a login screen saying that i have been suspended? :S

we could also take a screen of the guild roster to see how long it has been since i logged in last time....

and:
ash got me banned! 30 timer tilbage.JPG

and at last just a little trust

This may not be so bad, I mean, how many of you always wanted to change their chars names? I know I do, got some 3 years old ones and dont want to delete them but would like to change the name, so, do you think it may work? If I just could get some ppl to report my older chars for the names to change them afterwards.

The ol 360 tactic

bimmer · Jan 29, 2009, 03:35 PM // 15:35

btw it is impossible to contact anet about changing character name...

i thought to myself that i had heard some stories about people changing their name by getting "name banned" and then sending a request to anet/play NC about changing their names to help guild wars getting cleaner names

so why not try it out now that i am banned/suspended?

i am trying to do so at the moment and i haven't even got a reply saying no to the offer of me changing my name so this "mistake" would not repeat it self (and alot of ass kissing)

(soon i have waited a full day [24 hours], but still no answer so now i have tried to send the request multiple times to see if they will notice it)

(will be updated if I ever get an answer even if they deny to change my name)

ps
not saying the rumors/stories/fairytale/(what ever u feel like calling them) aren't true just testing how easy it is
