First off sorry for posting 3 times in a row but i just keep thinking of questions to ask and i don't konw if i can post under the same thread. But anyway i keep hearing about peoples names being on some list that says that can't use them... can someone look on that list and see if the name Sihik is good enough also check johanasana and Lord Quiton and tell me if they are good or if i have to make another char

Have a look at this post for invalid names:

http://www.illarion.org/community/forum ... php?t=5753

and to check yourself, have a look at the name rules:

http://www.illarion.org/illarion/us_name_rules.php

so you will found out, that two of the names you asked are for sure invalid.

It is quite difficult for one to get an account to his/her own liking, is it not?

My role-playing character met the requirements for a name (Ziro Vitrudestec) as listed in those rules but perhaps I was not accepted because the name is only four letters or I did not give much info behind my character. I could have told much more, but didn't because what I would have said would not effect my role-playing due to the structure of my character. I also noted that the name "Ziro" is on the list of names which are not accepted and I have to wonder if it was added when someone took note of my application to play Illarion. Anyhow, it is good to see that this game has strict role-playing regulations. Many MMORPG's claim to be about role-playing, but have a horrible, if any, role-playing environment. Also, it's interesting how the list notes that "Diablo" is the title of a game, but not how it's a word from the Spanish language meaning "devil".

As the name is written in the list of Galdriel

the name was rejected cause of the four letters.
Why haven't you used your full name for the application (Ziro Vidrudestec)? With the full name, there wouldn't be a problem.

Wait, the four letter rule doesn't apply if you're using a last name (like my name) right?

I was pretty sure I applied as Ziro Vitrudestec for the character name, but used Ziro for the account name and forum account. I hope neither of these would effect my application to that degree. I may try again if I accidently applied as Ziro rather than Ziro Vitrudestec.

Drei Jol,

you could get some Problems with your Name. Not because your Firstname has only three Letters, but it is a Word.

"Drei" means in German "Three" (3), and you are not allowed to use Words as your Firstname.
I cant tell you if you get rejected because of this, but this might be a reason if you get rejected.

Oh... dang. I think I picked the best name and it is a word.
