Fact of the matter is, we came up with this naming system so players could call themselves whatever they wanted. It used to be that names of characterd had to be approved before a person could have that character.
We don't do t hat any more because players are allowed to call their characters whatever they like. However----They should refrain from COMMON offensive names such as "Nigger Hater" or "Hitler" If it's a blatantly obvious offense such as "FUCK FACE" yes, they should be asked to change it. However, when you're saying Efac Ssa, you're not seeing "Ass Face," you're seeing and saying "Efac Ssa," whether you understand the joke behind it or not. But you're always welcome to try and get a person to rename themselves IC.

You could always force him to change it, refuse to call him that, choose your own name for him and convince people to use that instead.
He can call himself whatever he likes, makes no difference if everyone else calls him something different

Heads up, because I really despise this topic.
And I do hope that I'm not the only one here that thinks that this is definitely not the way Cantr's supposed to be played. I can understand when someone who doesn't name him/herself gets named after some local animal or flower pot, but it's simply downright ridiculous to name yourself like that out of nowhere, putting it backwards trying to hide it just for laughs.

I'm sorry, only the most naive would gape open their mouths in surprise if that were to happen, because it's freaking bound to happen. And it's not anywere near different from the name that started it.tiddy ogg wrote:Surely you are then the one being offensive, and blatantly so.

Heh, I suppose you find "Shi-Thead" a joke as well, eh?Missy wrote:However, when you're saying Efac Ssa, you're not seeing "Ass Face," you're seeing and saying "Efac Ssa," whether you understand the joke behind it or not.
