Apparently both Zp (even though anyone with half a fucking brain realizes you pronounce it zee pee), and ZProtous are both gibberish. The latter being gibberish because "any letter on its own before the main name is unpronouncable" even though it's not. Fucking stupid how they go after names like this and not the millions of gimlixx/legolasxx names you see around. god.

I think it's funny that they didn't catch on until you hit 60.

I think it's funny that they even have time to worry about that kind of shit. Nobody in our guild has ever even gotten a response on a GM ticket. Hell, I was stuck in limbo for an hour before I gave up on the GM and started /telling random warlocks to summon me. I've left GM tickets open for days without a response.

I'm not opposed to enforcing some form of a naming policy but it is definately getting out of hand with some of these retarded GMs. As it stands now, you need to play by the rules 100% or when you piss some kid off you can bet your name will be reported.

Everything Blizzard is doing sure is taking FOREVER. They seem to be slow in resolving these (in my mind) big issues.

Have your guild mates ever tried checking their email? Every single time I submit a ticket and I am not online when they take it, I have an email sent which addresses my issue.

As for being stuck in limbo, you could have submitted a ticket, created a new character to play for a couple hours, and came back to see your character resting peacefully in Ogrimmar or something.

As for the name, I would think ZProtoss could have violated at least 2 policies. It would be gibberish because it has 2 consonants next to eachother that can not be pronounced without adding vowels. Additionally, Protoss is the name of a race of characters in their very own Starcraft. I would think they are more than happy to change the names of people with names copyrighted by their own company.

Some faggots on Tichondrius have reported my name as well, saying it's racist, sexist and promotes the beating of women. What the fuck kind of shit is that, it's simply a play on words to make people laugh when they read it for the first time.

Not to mention blizzard already killed off Shining Path because of our ties to terrorists in Peru.

Unfortunately, when you piss someone off in this game, they simlpy report your name and it gets changed. Its retribution for the assholes that cant do anything about you.

nothing worse than peruvian terrorists.

They should not be butchering names of level 60 characters or well established guilds. It would be alot better if they just reviewed names at creation.

I saw a guy today on another server named Pogrom. Someone was telling him how offensive it was to have that name in game. So I checked it out on dictionary.com

No, the name I used was ZProtous, not ZProtoss due to that very reasoning. However the gibberish rule is nothing short of bullshit.
