having gone the first six months with all male chars I started remaking my chars into females...

Eazy sleazy -ranger
holly Ween- necro
Ivana blowju- war

Ive learned two important things about or GW community.. a name with sexual connotations will get you free stuff. ( eazy sleazy has gotten over 12k in plat, 4 green bows, ran free to sanctum cay played right at 34 hours- Ivana blowju got ran from free from ascalon to droks by the same person and again free ran to cay from beacons.. 26k in plat total victos axe and blade for free played 23hours..) people assume with a female char im a female player...Ive tried explaining " look six months with the same male chars gets old" then I get the "omg ur gay!!" and have to explain well actually nope my Name isnt "insert char name" its actually Samuel.. then theres the retort " but yopu named your char Ivana blowju so U gotta be gay wanting to blow me" and to which I reply.. " didnt you just give me 5k in plat? and a victos axe? k thks bbye

"

never one problem with any name.. IE not temp banned etc etc.

I was dismayed when uncle sam was taken for my monk and I had to make due with uncle samuel..

G = Genitals

Kinda wierd thing here. I had a ranger a reaaaallllly long time ago, and I named my pet Boner, yet they let me...

Evilsod · Apr 07, 2006, 11:50 PM // 23:50

I believe the word 'gullable' is a banned word too

quickmonty · Apr 08, 2006, 12:05 AM // 00:05

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm .....

Matsumi · Apr 08, 2006, 12:26 AM // 00:26

When I was playing my ranger I tried to name my pet MeatBag once, and it wouldn't take it for some reason, haven't tried it lately though.

That can't be true, I saw a monk named "Sexual Healing" just the other day; unless sexual is only blocked for pet names, which would just be weird.

If you asked my old high school principal why a single letter would be banned, he'd tell you that "G" is gang-related. That's the only thing I can think of.

"Lolita" is a forbidden word.
I had no idea what it meant when I tried to use it in my character's name... I just thought it sounded like a good name... lol
I guess it's good that they blocked it

Zerg · Apr 08, 2006, 06:00 AM // 06:00

It wouldnt let me name my character Genocide

or anyother variation genocyde, G E N O C I D E, ect

Phaern Majes · Apr 08, 2006, 06:29 AM // 06:29

I can make a char called "Allah Yahweh God" but anything with "Jesus" in it gets banned.

nirhan shadowmauler · Apr 08, 2006, 07:25 AM // 07:25

Charqus · Apr 08, 2006, 09:08 AM // 09:08

Few things have pissed me off more in Guild Wars than seeing some guy running around with Y A H W E H for a name. But Jesus, of course, is censored.

G M ??

anyone tried M ?

Ole Man Bourbon · Apr 08, 2006, 08:30 PM // 20:30

"W hore" is censored. That eliminated around 300 names I was going to use for my female PvP toons.

So I typically go with "Lady Gutterhore." Or for the update, "Bosomy Was Vampira."

At least I can get away with my Mesmer being named "Mantra of Poontang." I had to alter "bitches" for the name "Biches and Hos Beware," however, but oh well.

And no, I don't roleplay, so leave me the hell alone you freaky perverted guys. Some guy was actually like, "Hubba hubba!" to one of my female toons.

Morphin E as a guild name could get GW in some trouble if the younger gamers say something.

Anyways the filters should not just get rid of certain words but in the context it is used it

For example: puss should not be banned if used as Puss in Boots. However, if it is Puss Y then something should be done.

Anubis Servants · Apr 08, 2006, 08:41 PM // 20:41

i tried to make a clan pink pussywillows.

who would of thought pink would be a banned word

Ninetail Trickster · Apr 08, 2006, 09:16 PM // 21:16

G is banned for 'G Unit', methinks. (My IQ lost 5 points for saying that. I really, really can't afford that. >_>; )

Hunter Sharparrow · Apr 08, 2006, 09:33 PM // 21:33

For the Targeting a damned cleric, turn off your chat filter.

I can definitly agree with Lolita being blocked since it refers to females under 18 yrs of age in a non G-rated manner.

Blocking individual letters is just plain dumb.
