Rename of existing Charakters

Post by Galdriel »

Hallo,

the following Players should give me a private message,
since the e-mail, they entered for their chars does not work:

<ganondolf
<Gilderan
<Gilderon
Lady Iduna
nathrack
Händel
Mandil Light Mage

Reborn

Prime
Simon Templer
Sir Cartman
Sir Lorano

all others that got the mail from me should notice,
that the concerned names will be blocked in about 1 week.

"Prime" is in violation of the name rules. It is a word with many meanings.

Prime Numbers, Prime Example, etc...

Gala, do not let Sir Cartman in, it breaks 2 rules in.

1. The word "Sir" is in his name.

2. Cartman is a name of one of the kids from a show called Southpark. Southpark is a popular show in America.

Not sure if this as a GM controled char or not, but there is a person with the name Refugee, which breaks the name rules.

The player of "Refugee" is only spying the game, while waiting on name change :D

Ingame, no one knows the name, except some GM's ;)
greetings to them :)

Refugee, I've seen you in Cyrin before....same person, yes?

I believe he is a good roleplayer, the GMs from this game know him...so that should be good enough for us all.

I'm more worried about the name

"Silent Brodi"

Standards slipping, eh?

Hat sich in der vergangenen Zeit etwas wegen des Characters "Silent Brodi" getan?

Ich sah in letztens immernoch online unter diesen Namen und scheinbar wird er auch im Forum recht aktiv, da ich eigentlich nichts von diesem "stillen" Namen halte, würde ich darum bitten, dass dieser Name geändert werden sollte.

It appears that I may have entered the wrong pass on my last request...should I send another application? If not, then what?

Yes Grant, that's why they've been blocked until they receive a name change. We thank you for over stating the obvious.

Err... why are certain GM's exempt from the name rules?

Simon Templar was the main character of a TV show, played by Roger Moore. He was also the hero in the movie "The Saint".

Der Char Händel existiert komischer Weise immer noch und geht hin und wieder online, ich dachte er sollte umbenannt werden?

Nur ein Hinweis.

Also. the name Fedaykin..... I am positive that was taken From Dune. The Fedaykin are Sand warriors, so his name is not original.

Don't take names from books, films or computer games, create your own ones. If you take existing names, other people will expect that you act exactly like the person whose name you have. If you don't, the roleplay will be disturbed.

So unless hes sitting in the middle of the desert hes not acting the character right.

Es gibt auch einen Char, der heißt "Vatras" oder besser gesagt "Vatras der Wassermagier". Doch wer Gothic II gespielt hat, der wird wissen was ich meine...

Going from this kind of logic, shouldn't a name like "Fedaykin" or "Caranthir" also not be allowed? Yet both those names and others like them exist in game. Yet both those names and others like them are like the name "Simon Templar" in the way that they are all in various movies, books, and other media.

I sense some strangeness here...

I PMed him, requesting what kind of nonsense that was, making fun of the Fedaykin... But then I had some spice and everything was better. :wink:

Some people joined before the name rules were invented. There is your explanation.
