Name changes are automated and instant

Yea, it could have been all 4 of us, but it was for sure 2 of us that reported him. Being level 10 he didnt do much stuff other than walk through Stormwind then end up in our dungeon.

Im confused.
bad name
you report.
hes gone
he renames
hes back with a new name.

what are you upset about again?

There’s rules for things in a community. shocker.
He knew he had a name that wasn’t allowed. They got a free name change without having to lose their character.

I’m not upset, I’m sharing my experience. I never saw anyone mention this system being this quick to act.

Are you aware of the phrase “victimless crime”? It’s letters on a screen, and someone you will never see again after your dungeon. The fact that you even bothered to report someone in content that takes 15 minutes to complete is actually sad. Total nark behaviour, I bet you’d also snitch on a broke mother shoplifting some babyfood for her kid because “thems the rules” lol

I’ve seen posts here saying names that were definitely over the top (I’d say that one was, but I don’t want to get silenced for saying those words) got their character deleted. Not just renamed. Would you rather find out early on, or after you spend much time and dedication on it?

And no, i’d buy it for her.

I just had my name force name changed and it’s an awesome name. I won’t say it because someone might find it offensive. Sadly. But all I got was a cut a paste answer. To my appeal. If you wanna know the name “bobs burger floral shop” I thought it was a funny name for a Druid. But nooo. Reporting names is stupid becuase I dont know what offends everyone. They need to have actual people review instead of cut and paste. Im pretty sure it’s ai because none of my multiple questions were answered. I’m spending real money give me a real answer

Was it on a RP server or a regular? I don’t think it would have been an issue on the regular ones. But RP servers have extra naming rules.

Maybe its 10 and only 8 other people reported it before you

or 20 and only 18 other people reported it… etc etc

You are throwing a tantrum over someone else getting reported for breaking rules. You have no room to talk

So you would break that rule, knowing it’s a victimless crime that harms no one? Why are you so uppity about reporting a random persons name? Whether or not that person might’ve been reported down the line is irrelevant because I’d be saying the exact same thing to whoever would’ve done that down the line, but instead you chose to be the name police and go on to post it on the forums lol

How would I break a rule? I’d notice the woman and offer her I’d pay for it for her.
Breaking the rules to feed your kid does not compare to breaking the rules to huehuehue lookit my funny name.

Try saying that on the CS forums :rofl:

No, you were just the final reports.

How does playing this game feed anyone’s kids?

Dude compared me reporting a vulgar name to snitching on a broke mom stealing baby food.

Just. What the hell? Like, actually, what the hell?

Nah, just one will work. I reported someone in a mythic back at the start of DF who had a very legitimately rude name that bypassed the filters. I reported him at the start of the dungeon and he was back in, right when we were about to pull the first group.

If may work like how some other auto trips work: the actual library of banned words for names is very lenient so you can have your name Riddick without being told you’re naughty. However, there may be an automatic library that’s more strict that relies on human logic to tell it that this particular player isn’t Riddick, but using the last half for something else.

More ambiguous names that don’t trip that library sit in the que for a GM. In the library of a game I helped mod for, we even had all alt codes added to the string of variants for special people trying to dodge the filter.

That is a very good point and makes a lot of sense!

Like how Assassin wouldn’t trigger the filter, but you know. XD
