HypdUp 0 Report post Posted January 1, 2017 I was wondering, if you guys will have the same name policy as retail WoW, I want a name on the fresh server but I'm not sure if I could use it, would love an answer, If you would like PM me and I will share the name which I want, since I dont want people trying to compete and steal it. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DamirH 3 Report post Posted January 1, 2017 I'm not sure what the actual naming policy is, but I am guessing "if you have to ask, the answer is probably no". 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's not completely true. lol, retail WoW at one point got a patch where they basically block names such as: President, Companies, and other things of the such, for copyright or something? But the problem is, I have no idea when they implemented that, maybe in Vanilla it hadn't been integrated yet. So I would love to find out before I hop on there and waste my time trying a name that will not work due to this. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is the current naming policy: https://forum.elysium-project.org/topic/21966-terms-of-use-rules-regulations/ A.

If Elysium staff finds such a label to be offensive or inappropriate, it may, in its sole and absolute discretion, change the name, remove the label and corresponding chat room, and/or suspend or terminate your use of the service. Guilds which violate the policy will be deleted with or without warning. You may not create a name or label related, referring, incorporates or utilizes any of the following: Religion, Politics, Organizations; Nationality, Racism, Ethnics; Harassment or Defamation; Obscenity, Vulgarity, Insults; Sexually explicit, Violence; Hateful, Drugs, Unlawful; Staff member or any staff oriented name; Incomprehensible. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Welp, I'll just say the name here, so I guess I cant use the name Queen? Because of the Politics part of that rule? If so that's a bummer :/ 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TTL 6 Report post Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) Well it's hard to believe President would be banned on retail... President fits a wild array of titles, nearly all large businesses have a President, a club can, anything really... I really don't see Queen being a political thing... wouldn't know for certain but I don't see what is wrong with it personally. There is also a very popular band named Queen.... but if you go around banning all simple language then no one will have a name, it becomes ridiculous as hell.
