here i'll make it apparent.
Character and Corporation names may not: be racially or ethnically or sexually derogatory; contain profanity; suggest an affiliation with a real-life hate group or figurehead. They may not impersonate a member of the Eve Online team, S&SI staff, CS staff or volunteer corp. Alternative spellings will be viewed with the same scrutiny as traditional spellings. Names used in the game are also reserved and may not be used in whole or part. Infraction of these rules may result in a mandatory name change or ban at our discretion.
Note that the list is not all-inclusive and names that violate our rules can be changed by Customer Support staff, even if they could be inserted in the character creation process.
That QQ for ya?

I find your name offensive as it is a direct link to neopia which is a peadophiles playground which has links with scientology.
'nuff said.

This topic is entirely different. ISK spammers are ruining the game, people with ridiculous names aren't. It's your problem if you get easily offended.
CCP is merely protecting themselves against lawsuits. Current system does the job, there's no reason to do more just to satisfy a bunch of prudes.
Petition if you find something extreme, then go back playing the game.

So OP wants us all to be mature and not offend the young kids playing the game with our names, but then expects the same level of maturity from those young kids?
Me thinks OP is completely out of touch with reality. Sarcasm - Because i'm too far away to strangle you. |

I'm sort of on board with the op but for different reasons.
I have seen some names that I think help explain why we do not have more women playing eve. Or at least not fcing where they would have to repeatedly say the names of targets. (I'm not saying *all* women, I'm sure many don't mind but I would think many would not be up for it.) This I agree is a bad thing.
But anyway, I personally never really understood the whole "bad word" concept. So I am not overly sympathetic. Where I grew up people would sprinkle "bad words" into their language all the time.
I think the focus of any such activity shouldn't be "protecting children" from hearing a bad word, but instead making sure the game isn't obnoxious to certain groups.

Edited by: Flesh Slurper on 24/11/2010 20:35:13 I cant stand people like you. Just because you don't like something, shouldn't mean that no-one should be able to like it. If you don't like their name, which is not really offensive at all, you can choose not to look at it. Just because you dislike the word crotch, doesn't make it offensive to everyone, nor should it be banned.
I think you should be banned.. you are an amarr slaver. Your crimes are too great to allow you to exist!

It is not me, its the Naming Policy your attacking. I can bring it up as many time as I like as it is a Policy that MUST be read before playing the game/ creating your character. I dont care if you hate me thats your issues. and this Is eve's By allowing inappropriate name to come in-game breaks the Naming policies that is NO different then isk spamming, for Mature Game it wouldn't be an Issue but there is a NP, and this game is Teen. Teen is ages 13+ thank you very much.

Sure, but you are saying someone should be banned for the word "crotch" in their name. The issue is that where you draw the line for inappropriate and what someone else might, are different, especially for a word like crotch. My parents routinely used that word throughout my childhood and I have no inclination that it is offensive at all, but someone like you believes it is. hell, I am sure your kid has heard the word "Crotch" in school countless times even before they are 13, and I highly doubt any teacher or school administrator would discipline a child saying it.
Obviously there are some words that the vast majority of people would find offensive, however for the remainder of them, I don't believe its you or CCPs job to judge their appropriateness. Just ignore it and get on with life.

what spawned your topic was the word "crotch" in someone's name, which you disliked, and petitioned. So obviously the word crotch made you so mad you wanted to get revenge and ban someone.

Sure. lets go with that you people are not very good at this anyway.
It would be my proposal to State that OPEN PETITION limit should be Raised. and the Currant inappropriate names that are in game now CAN be dealt with.

Incorrect spelling, punctuation, and capitalization annoy me. I live with my disappointment in the human condition just as you should, silently. Well, usually.
Perhaps including variations of hamburger in your name should be restricted since hindu consider the cow a sacred creature. Or are we only respecting western sensibilities? Just the other day I saw cheeseburgerdeluxe or something of that nature. Add him/her/it to the list!
For some reason some people don't like being called stewardess, preferring flight attendant. Let's categorically stamp out the use of male/female based profession names since they may be considered derogatory. Oh man we can add so much to this list.
Or we could be tolerant. You're the one acting immature. Words mean what you build them up to mean. Someone told you crotch was naughty, and like the god-fearing simpleton that you are you apparently went with it. Not everyone feels the same, including plenty of parents.
Petition it. Petition all of the names mommy told you were bad. CCP will decide if she was right. This doesn't need to be here. |

no. your response to attack me is Immature. Your Ignoring the facts.
So I'll elaborate here, By denying anything Ive said during the begining of this topic the player(s) whom have attacked me with glorified words are Interested in Destroying the Rules that CCP placed, and that players whom have gotten away with this should not get punished? That is what Im seeing in every reply that has been AIMED at me.

It's up to them to enforce their rules. They have a system in place to allow you to participate in that enforcement by reporting violations. You are free to do so. They are just as free to decide if the instance has broken their rules and merits enforcement of them. A thread in the assembly hall will do nothing to correct the problem that you believe exists.
On the other hand, I'm really digging the random capitalization over here.

your no better then Trolls by saying anything out of the topic. Which is Somehting should be done about Inappropriate Names In-Game(which is described In their NP). I Play Eve, and I do not attempt to break from the guidelines made and AGREED-Upon when you first start your client & game & character. (which Ill point my finger at more then 90% of you forum readers)

The fact remains that you are using an example "crotch" which does not meet the requirements to have a name containing it removed. Therefore we can conclude that many of the other names that you personally find offensive and claim violate the rules actually don't. All you will be doing is wasting the GM's time.
The players haven't gotten away with anything because nothing wrong has been done. They won't be punished because there is no point to punish them.

Gallion, have you noticed that you are the only person here upset by this? Seriously, I don't care, and I doubt anyone else does either. If you find inappropriate names this upsetting, that you need to rant in a nebulous thread in Assembly Hall about it, what the heck are you doing playing an MMORPG?

Originally by: Herping yourDerp if "words" offend a teenager they shouldn't by playing online, or games in general, well maybe they should just die. sorry but its true, its a damn word, oh i said damn, im offending you, go cry in the corner, k thanx.
So I suppose that it should be okay to run around with any name we want, using your logic, and if we don't like it, well, sucks to be us.
Or, we could be adults and realize that there needs to be some standards of decency in the game.
I think the renaming solution that we have right now is perfectly acceptable though; no need to add a ban on top of it. Fix Rockets in '08 '09 2010 2011 2012?! |

Except there should be. It was part of the rules they Agreed to when the Client first installs to a computer - to follow all policies. And the renaming only take effect when a Person petitions it. which is where Im going with this topic.

Not sure if serious... of all the things to crusade against in this game, of all the things that suck or are plain broken, of all there is to fix you choose the word "crotch"?
I err.. confussd.
But just for arguments sake, is there a list of terms someone may find offensive? I don't think such a sensitive topic as bans for offensive terms that seem inocuous to others based on a whole bunch of subjectivity are a good idea.
I don't think this should be up to GM's as they are known to act based on their own beliefs and who knows what they find offensive. |
