Q:

I got my main character named “Rai Pedd” (Northern Shiverpeaks)
I have no idea how could this name offend someone
The system banned me like 68 hours
What can I do? o.o

Usually, when accounts are suspended for inappropriate names, they are soon allowed back in game (in less than the 72 hours), having only to rename the character. You might just keep trying to log in, and see if this holds true in your case.

You can also submit a ticket to Customer Support to discuss this issue, if you so desire.

Good luck. =)

Oh, and I can see why that name would be inappropriate. If you remove the space, I am sure you can, as well.

Read it as one word. That may answer your question.

I’m pretty sure the op knows why the name is offensive. Please take people of all genders, races, religions, etc. into consideration when you pick your next name. Another offensive name will probably earn you a longer suspension.

Personally I think they took it easy on you with just a 72-hour suspension.

You’re intentionally trying to get around blocks on a controversial name. Be lucky the suspension wasn’t longer.

In GW2, Trading Post plays you!

Intentionally or not, these are the rules and even if you know you had no bad intentions, others don’t.

There really is no way around this and I’ll be honest, if I had seen this name come along while playing I’d be offended too.

You take a word that represents a degrading and traumatizing crime of violence toward a weaker person who can’t defend themselves, you then modify it to avoid the automatic name creation filters, and then you complain when you’re suspended for a measly 3 days.

Really?

Apparently a 3-day suspension isn’t having the intended effect. Maybe the next suspension will. I’ve heard it’s 7 days long, which should be enough time for you to pick an appropriate name.
