Bottom post of the previous page:
So recently I've been asked by admins to change the name of a character "Nyanaroni An'Cheese" because it breaks the naming rule, however I don't see how this does and I believe it falls under minimum effort not excessively OOC. I was told I'm not the only person this applies to despite the fact that another catgirl player Cup Cake is able to keep their name? I've never heard anyone named Cup. At least mine could be argued to be spaceage gibberish. I know that the user who plays Cup Cake was banned for refusing to change the name before, but they were unbanned and continue to play the character. Either you let all slightly stupid names through or you don't. Smell testes are unfair and the rules need to be updated regarding names and enforced on EVERYONE, because smell tests clearly aren't working.The naming policy IS DUMB

OOC names are covered by no OOC in IC. Why does it need to extend further beyond that? Every time we have this thread it's an endless cycle of "this is good and this is bad and these arbitrary standards are actually VERY EASY if you use common sense by reading my mind GOD its so SIMPLE"

Re: The naming policy IS DUMB
Because this is a thread about names, not fetishes.
Fuck it i'm out, you have to be doing this intentionally. There's no way someone can be this dense.

Re: The naming policy IS DUMB
A blurred line for the rule is good in this case. Helps keep normal names the norm and pun/joke names minimal but not extinct.

If that were true we wouldn't be here. People are begging for a more definite line so they know where to toe it.DemonFiren wrote:A blurred line is easier to toe, though.

Also trying to autistically enforce your own vision of what names are going to be in a space station full of psychopaths in the far future is fucking stupid and you should all feel bad about it

Re: The naming policy IS DUMB
This thread has accomplished absolutely nothing just like all the other naming policy threads. Naming policy is enforced at the individual admin's discretion and that's unlikely to change. Admin complaints and ban appeals are for when you think a ruling on it is unfair. Just get special headmin permission if an admin yells at you for an okay name.

Re: The naming policy IS DUMB
How about in the meantime we can just like make a note or something so people's names are decidedly safe or not so people don't get hit multiple times if their name is questionable
