Default Naming Policy Update

Default Re: Naming Policy Update

Ah, I see. You mean these rules (from an old version of the policy):

Quote:
5. Non-fantasy oriented names from popular media. These names can be either
fictional (e.g. Rambo, Darthvader) or non-fictional (e.g. Garth Brooks,
Pierce Brosnan, Ronald Reagan, Michael Jordan).

10. Fantasy-oriented names that are easily recognized from popular existing
media (e.g. Merlin, Gandalf, Belgarath, Drizzt, Tanis).

The last part is most important. basicly means "you shouldn't do this, but if you do, we wont stop you untill the owner complains" "or if we just dont like you"
