The latest "Mondays in MMORPGs" has been published on the Saga of Lucimia site, a series dedicated to examining industry norms and how SoL will handle them. In this latest article, the notion of naming conventions in MMOs is examined. In Saga of Lucimia, players will be asked to adhere to "roleplay preferred" names. 

What does that mean?

But a naming policy is a tricky thing; go to far and you become the thought police. It’s a slippery slope, but one that we’ll be attempting to navigate as we work together with our community to create a safe haven for roleplayers and those who prefer their fantasy worlds to be free of real-world references or references to other fantastical settings. Because no matter who you are as a player, you can come up with something other than Teabagger, Cokzsucker, or the millionth variation of Drizzt or Legolas.
