Simply said, people love to mock the name policy with very gnarly names in other languages. In such situations, shall I report them ?

<removed> we don't need descriptions either.

Edited the thread to weed out the trolls and irrelevant posts.

Bottom line OP -- If you see a name that is in violation of our Naming Policy, report it. It would also be helpful to include why you feel it is in violation as some character names may not appear to be in violation at first glance. Eilethalua gave some good examples.

To clarify, as has been clarified multiple times on this forum before, our policies are mainly reactive. We do not run searches on every inappropriate name, word, religious figure, etc. that exists, not including the multiple variations thereof. We rely on reports submitted from our players when they see a name that may be deemed as inappropriate.

Keeping this thread locked as there is really no need to reopen it.
