Appropiate Name Filter
Sign Now
We are petitioning to see that a more sensible and appropriate name filter is used for Neocron: Beyond Dome of York but not so strict that it will force many current runners to lose what has become their identity.
We are all for a name filter that will eliminate the possibility of names that in the past have taken advantage of the open name choice. Examples of the types of names to be filtered would be as follows:
- Names that go over the top in varying the case of the letters I.e. hEaRtBrEaKehH. But names that do not use this to an extreme should be tolerated I.e. BlackwooD
- Names that contain offensive profanity should be filtered as to not cause offence to others.
- Names that are hard to understand which may use a mixture of '1337' speak and random characters such as ^!"$\%&/()=? etc should be filtered out, But allow the use of a certain amount of special characters and numbers to allow the chance to create unique names, I.e [TgR]Killer, G.O.D., .
- Finally a side list of inappropriate names that would be rejected if entered.
We believe that the above rules of filtering would be a more sensible option as opposed to the extremely harsh options which have been set out at http://forum.neocron.com/showthread.php?t=102843.
If the harsher options are implemented then we believe that a whole lot of individuality will be lost with the change.
We believe that the Neocron community can be mature enough to make sensible names and that names such as [TgR]Killer, G.O.D. garyu69, Nemesis_2K, BlackwooD V etc are completely un-offensive and would cause the community no pain if names of similar format are permitted.
