Played beta and loved it on my shaman named “Southern Trendkill” after a song I love. Just tried to reserve it but “Southern” is restricted.(I tried several last names and none worked). “Northern Trendkill” is perfectly acceptable though.

Probably had too many weirdos roll up charcters that got hit with the name purge during Beta.
Sorry, being Southern is culturally insensitive to the snowflakes.

Its probably “South”, I am betting they are overly aggressive due to abuses of words. They probably need to dial it back on the filter now.

WtF does that have to do with the word “southern” being banned? the colored haired woke devs strike again, I see a “BioWare” future is going to take place on these people soon.

This cannot be a real thread, lol. If it is, I’m highly amused at the ones saying “the left wokie snowflakes get offended by everything” are offended that a name with “UTHER” in it (as someone else pointed out why it was banned) being unusable.

It is probably due to the fact there was some idiot coder long ago thta made their ‘bad word’ filter. It is deeply ingrained in Blizzard code also in Diabllo online games. It is moron grade code that blocks specific character strings. Exxample. Grape is a banned word for pets. Tried to name a pet as Grape King (ape pet) after a known cartoon character from long ago. Bllocked. Reason I’m sure is a ‘bad word’ string is embeded.
MORON level coding. been that way for decades now.
