No but I wish they'd let me change the name of my main. Too bad it's not offensive. Too bad they reward offensive names by offering them change.

*grumble*

I had 4 character names banned. I think if one of the names was reported as inappropriate, then the whole account gets reviewed for other inappropriate names.

I'd be curious to see if that would actually work. Though I think you would need a name that can be offensive in some way.

Easy, just play the "it's offensive in that language" technique xD.

This game has a 12+ rating in the UK, and everyone here has sex education at the age of 10/11, yet they will ban you for having words like 'Sex' or even 'Se X' in your name.

Funny thing is...I'd have never thought to have gone in that direction - guess my mind lacks the tools necessary to find things truly offensive...Ebola for instance: Not a pleasant way to go, but then, neither is being crushed, smashed, disemboweled or exsanguinated, yet those word seem to be acceptable, as well as cancer, tumor, chemo and the like. I suppose anything can be turned "naughty" or offensive if you think about it long enough. I tend not to. Maybe a nice name like John Thomas?

Guess they reviewed my whole account for offensive names. I just tried to get on my Ele, and i had to change her name too.

It was "Ima Bish Slap you"

That is offensive to me, lol, knowing what it is a euphemism for.
