WHY NOT ALLOW THEM TO CHANGE THEIR NAME????????????

 

Permanently banning people for this is ridiculous... 

 

Was actually one of my suggestions.

 

Glad to see the dev team listens... ;)

lol you never fail to deliver mr. fanboi supremo

Thats why it's good to stick to WoW although it sucks having had of played it makes every other game seem to suck so either stay way from it or play it all the time thats what it's stuck too and Darkfail is rather disapointing. I've seen some F2p shitty ass grinders with better customer service than this. And they allow ching chon china names and ôƒqæ?etc type names.

Well, in a small way, I feel I did. For this issue, at least.

WoW, I congratz  Tasos for doing something no other company would dare to do.  I mean I was sick and tired of seeing retarded names like LIELIIEKLE or IIIIJLLLIFH.  They exist in every MMORPG, and normally are not penalized.  

---

Did you stop to consider, that Lieliiekle might sound like a good name to someone who doesn't speak English as his native tongue and is trying to make up a name wich wouldn't already be in use?

While I agree that MMOs should have rules against completely unpronouncable names like IIIIJLLLIFH, I'm glad that you aren't the one making up those rules because you'd ban also players who have had good intentions and created a name wich sounds good in their native tongue.

I'm not very suprised that regardless what kind of shit Tasos says, there are always people who are defending it.

As people were complaining about hackers in the game, the fanbois stated there were no hackers or max 1 guy in the game who cheated and he was already banned. Now that Tasos found out he does not like some names because they confuse his GM's (lol), everyone with a confusing name is put under general suspicion for being a cheater and forced to delete his character. Who will know which name is confusing and which isn't, this will depend on the arbitrariness of Aventurine or single GM's. Really, this is incompetent as much as I can imagine for a service that you have to pay for.

And no its not only IIIlliill that should delete his character its even MitcheII .

http://forums.darkfallonline.com/showthread.php?t=174565&page=2

Strange thing is that if there are so few cheaters it wouldn't have been a problem to find these hackers with strange names but as this seems to be worth a forum post for the otherwise silent guy, it looks like that hacking is a major problem in the game.

So instead of, you know, fixing the exploits and hacks they ban people with stupid names?  Another quality and enlightened move by the God King Tasos.

All arguing aside, this will probably affect maybe 2% or less of the total population of the game.  Then you have to ask yourself out of that 2%, how many of those are legit players?  I can't think of anyone I know or in any guild I have allied with (been through (2-3 alliances) who had a name that would even be remotely close to being hit by this policy.

paragus1, you have a number in your name. That is unacceptable for MMORPG forums. Please stop using this account and make a new one, with an acceptable name.

That is all.

This is one of the best points in this discussion. Has anyone even considered that those names may mean something in other languages?

How about these names:

PRST,SLNKO,SLILI,SPLILI - they all look weird in lower case prst, slnko,slili,splili

But they ALL mean something in a foreign tongue. Would AV ban those legit names too?

Don't permanently ban someone because you have no clue how to code a way into your system to be able to rename their character's names... DON'T PERMANENTLY BAN SOMEONE FOR YOUR INCOMPETIENCE!

 

It is lame why just not warn someone and ask him to change it.

Apparently, there is a native of the Amazonian jungle someplace who just happened to stumble across a computer, the internet, and Darkfall and found all the other names taken in his native language, so he made up this name.

Too bad those names have nothing to do with the discussion as you can easily reconize the letters in them with the exception of slili and splili. So your point is?

I always wondered what it would be like if someone slipped while hiking on a mountain pass and as they were just about to fall to their death, dashed on the jagged rocks below, they reached out and grabbed a root growing out of the side cropping of rock. The sense of panic mixed with knowing this one thread, however tenuous it is, was keeping their hopes alive one minute longer must have been immense as they hang there.

After reading you post this in all seriousness, I no longer wonder.

Legit? Have you ever met a person or read about a person with that name? If not, then it's not so legit, is it?

Yes I have. On the other hand, Ive never met anyone by the name sanders01, so that makes your name not a legit name, right?

EDIT: just in case you ask for proof, heres a link to "LA STORY 1985" part. 74.125.93.104/search and there is a john lili living in Camarillo, CA.

As I have never met someone named jimmyman99 ;). Plus, this isn't my in-game name, so it doesn't matter anyway, as that is probbaly not your in-game name so it doesn't matter. On another note, did you see this name in-game?

I'll make a toon named splili, not only because it sounds like spleen, but to disprove sanders' silly idea that just because it's never (or rarely) been done before, it isn't legit.

You get banned on the DF forums for just typing reguardless of your name.

Well isnt the whole point of banning names because they are "bad" ? That means you have to see the name to ban it. So if you see that name, it is automatically legit, according to your logic that is. Or am I missing something? Cuase this is circular logic.

Most likely, he means "legit" as in "possible to exist within the game", not legit as in acceptable. That's why it's flawed, just because no one has ever made a name like that doesn't mean someone never will.

LOL, your comment gave me a thought. Since banning names, because someone considers them "bad", is a form of discrimination, then I suggest AV to ban ALL names. This way if someone sues them, they can say "What discrimination? We dont discriminate based on names. We ban all names equally."

EDIT: speeling erorrers.

I dont see how you get the "So if you see that name, it is automatically legit" that from my post? Maybe I'm missing something or your fabricating something, I dont know which. Anyway, I'm already proved wrong, why drag it out further?

Try pointing it out in the DF forums and see what happens.
