Folks thought my name was funny and no one reported me. I GM noticed me and forced a change.
I got busted pretty quick but my buddy managed to dodge the GM's in-game for quite some time before being forced to change it. I think he was reported by someone in a PUG.
Friend of mine was called Valium for years. All through Shadowbane and then WoW. He was a Blacksmith and he had crafted me a bunch of armour. I knew he had a name change when my gear no longer said <Made By Valium> and a GM had force renamed him a name with the letter cap. It was like Xuahguehfjghdx or something totally unreadable.
He had to contact a GM to get it changed to something else. Was pretty hard to invite him to groups for awhile. :P
The sad thing is, someone on our own faction reported him because he beat them to tagging a mob. He had PvP'd heavily with the character and had heaps of HK's and nobody ever reported him. Goes to show the dicks are always on your own faction.
I had a buddy that started a guild named "Pallus Vendor" and they would go stand next to other vendors around towns, it was damn hilarious. they had to rename obviously. My favorite was a guy named capnjacksparrow which was forced into being Scurvydog (they picked it for him, he didn't even get a choice lol).
What's a Pallus? Is it a phallus only smaller?Quote:

Sorry to hear Satinworship got hit with the name stick, but I've always preferred leather.

I'm one of those people who report names _all the time_. I am on an RP server though.
Being 'clever' with names will draw attention to you and give others a chance to mess you about by reporting you. The best thing to do is be creative and stick to the rules.
