character creation name filter

Over the past 2 weeks I've been suspended TWICE for the same thing...an unacceptable name. Both of these characters were 3-4 months old so a surprise ban just pisses you off. While you see other names running around that are far worse than "Wanker Skillz". Yes, that is what i got banned for when theres names going around the filter, racist, and vulgar. Thats crap, just put a character name filter on if people are gonna bitch about it, i didnt think twice about making my names that got me suspended.

The ban shouldn't be such big a surprise for you.
But I guess you forgot to read the User Agreements.

Anyway I support your idea about the name filter.
/signed

/not signed.

just so people can work their way round it in the search of an offensive name?

people already work around the filter by spelling "fuk" or "azz" and if im gonna get banned for saying "wanker" id say something needs to be changed

I'm iffy on this only because an otherwise legit name might be disallowed depending on the name filter. For example "Mass Effect", "Lord of the Cockatrices", or "Titus Andromidus" all might be disallowed.

lol didnt think about that, just kind of upsetting getting suspended for a name they allowed you to make in the first place

I understand that. There should be at least a pop up you can activate to give you an idea of the things you can't use and things that are borderline but acceptable.

yeah i hear ya, unfortunately i didnt think my name was even "borderline", oh well

yeah right...after all its fine to go out in the street and randomly call people "wanker".

thinking a little tends to ease ones way through life you know.

You don't consider "wanker" to be vulgar?

Granted it doesn't offend or bother me, but it's far from the sort of word you'd drop into polite conversation.

well either way they unsuspended me after a short few emails but thanks to the support team at NCsoft

A little logic works...

sooo...

"Wanker Skillz" is fine by Ncsoft?
is
Jerkoff skills? , jizzlover?, Dick head?, RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO fighter?

like seriously why on earth would the UNBAN a name like that, if thats fine then everything is.

i mean its not even remotely tongue in cheek like "pussy galore", or "octopussy" (classics in the gendre) but straight out vulgar.

oh well.

they still made me change the name so calm down geez, it is rated teen after all, no use in being a cry baby when you hear a semi-dirty word

saw somebody with the name 'Big Jizzy' , dunno if he's been banned yet.

A fairly low filter would work, on words like, "red engine gored", "red engine gored" and "red engine gored" (I decided typing it myself you be quicker). A filter on words that are offensive at any time. Then, leave the offensive name report for the words that can be offensive in context, but harmless otherwise.

big jizzy lmao funny gotta give that pedo props

yeah thats the main reason i was mad, ive seen far worse in game and i got the axe twice on characters that were around for a few months

really you do not get anything out of your name so why even do something slightly crude

better idea is dont make names that are obviously unsavory.
