My character names on my account are

Slipperynipples
Sickballs
Fatcrap
Filthytaco

I would consider these names to be silly at worst… I do not see how they are offensive/inappropriate

Are you telling me that the only way I can play this game is to give my characters boring hardcore roleplay nerd names?

The game is full of violence and death, botters and exploiters and you guys are suspending people for names? Why not just let us rename our characters every time you deem the name to be “inappropriate” without suspending our accounts. How am I supposed to know what other players will find offensive…

Also: What kind of pathetic/malicious person reports my names? What wrong have I done to you? If you had maybe talked to me you would have realised that I am actually a nice person – the type you want to play with with.

you are actually serious?

do my character names actually affect your gameplay experience to the point where think I should have my account banned?

I wouldn’ find any of those names appropriate, (but since I barely look at names, I don’t really care) but I agree a warning to change your name should be given before the ban.


I’m sorry I stepped outta yer box, don’ worry, if
ya whine enough they’ll put me right back.

Your names are sexually suggestive and therefor not appropriate for younger players to read. C’mon….you really want to tell me that ‘Filthytaco’ is about some Mexican food you dropped on the ground? If it wasn’t a player whose kid also plays that reported you, it was probably an Anet moderator. You think they’re not watching?

I’m not surprised you got a ban. It’s been a while since they’ve cracked down on names, but it’s something they’ve been doing since the three-day head start. Could be they’ve been too busy working on other things to bother.

A three day ban is standard in these cases. When you’re able to get back into the game, you will have to change your character’s names.

Somehow, I feel you’re the only one who is surprised by this.
