[HotelBravoLima] Alium Ambassder - Name change

[Horven]

Byond account and character name: Horven - Alium Ambassder
Admin: HotelBravoLima
Time incident occured: 2:00 AM
Detailed summary: I get a message from HBL asking me if he can ask me about my name. I say sure. He asks me if I'm new to the game. I tell him I've been playing for a couple of years now. He says "Fair enough, do you mind changing your name next round? If you were the clown it would be fine". I ask him if the other admins have the same complaint. He tells me he'll ask around; then he tells "As Head Admin I actually get say in this so change your name next round please". I tell him "I've been using the name for years and you're the only one who has a problem with it; do I really have to change it?". HBL: "Yes".

I'd like to hear what the other admins have to say about forcing a name change.

9. Pick a normal name. You must not use honorifics or nick names (E.g. Dr Greg House or Jack "Johnny" Johnson), and must be spelt fully with capitals and no shortenings (e.g. NOT J Hoffman or jaiden mallow). Exceptions to this are Eats-The-Lemons format of Lizard names, Clown, Mime, Silicon, Wizard and Nuke Op names. References are still allowed, but try to be original.

Would it be okay if I added another l?

It might sound stupid, but you might be able to do Ally U.M. Ambassador?

My old name follows every guideline in this new rule that was established while I was on a break from the game. The thread that talks about it makes it sound like it was implanted because people were running around with names like Floor Tile, Adolf Hitler, Syndicate Cyborg, ShitFace McGee or McGuffin FartWart. My name isn't hurting anyone, going to confuse anyone with anyone with an in game item or using any profanity. I even afford the Allium onion as a reference point, but got no response on it. Thank you for the suggestion MrGlasses, but I can't use U.M. in my name according to the new rules.

What about Ali Umbassador?

[Horven]

I'll admit; I was annoyed after hear about how I had to change my name, but I'm calm now. I suppose the name was a bit meta. I'll change my name to Allen Ambassder; is this acceptable?

I would say so. I can't imagine anyone disagreeing.

[Horven]

Cool. I'm going to miss the name, but this matter is resolved.

Thanks for being understanding about this.
