I do miss my ranger's original name Fiery Arrow Ur Arse.

But some guy in a party being runned to forge. He wouldn't pay so I offered the runner, I would pay for me and the other guy and to drop him from party. We did and he said he would report my name is offensive, and that's why she has a new name now .

Im honestly totally unoffended by anything... there is nothing that you can say to offend me, I think our entire race is just getting demolished by a bunch of whiney little kids.. and there not kids because actually little kids do not understand what these words mean yet.

Eh todays kids now, know so many things I never knew when I was growing up. T.V, radio, has influenced kids to the max knowing things they aren't supposed to be aware of until they are older.

I hated the SWG filter, i wanted to make a character, that for whatever the name was to be had the eltters A S S appearing next to one another, I think i had looked up a word into Japanese, and was to use that.

It annoyed me that a non-offensive name couldnt be used simply becasue it contained what could be considered an offensive word that is only offensive in the right context.

Im not saying SWG should allow the use of the F or C words in the oddness that they may appear in Japanese / other language words, but that letter combo i mentioend appears in many words, inc for example ASSASSin, so how could Anet ban words from ebing used in a character name, that they use as a class name?

is Ms. Camel Toe the apparent offensive name in question? if so, how!? lol

If not, and its something that really can be taken offensively, then perhaps you should have thought about it more, before using it.

If its something obscurely offensive that most of us wudnt bat an eyelid at, then complain against the temp ban.

It's... a Character. Not something that would naturally have an offensive name.

At least, in my opinion, characters should have names that... sound like names. If you want to name your character 'U Tank I Heal', do it in PVP Only. Personally, that's my take... By default, i feel that that sort of alleviates the issue.

*Sigh* Some of these names are so immature.
