Lol. 'The Drunken Runkers' is going on my future guild names list.
For my sins I once did a little bit of tech support for microsoft and had to explain to a gentleman of fairly advanced years why his gamertag had been banned. The tag: Jizz25
He was completley unaware of this colloquialism and I had to explain........carefully
Why in the name of all that is hyboria is the word Drunk forbidden in guild names??? Is my version somehow censored?
This is ridicilous!

The goal of the naming policy is to promote the feeling of being immersed into the world of Age of Conan. These policies apply to all player names, regardless how long it has been since they were created. Use of the following will be restricted:
1. Names that are profane, racist, drug references, trademarks or obscene are not allowed; this also applies to any homonym, phonetic misspelling, obvious spoonerism, combination, or reverse spelling.
2. Names that are created to defame or impersonate another character are not allowed. This includes names of GMs/FoAs/Funcom employees.
3. Names that are created using terms and/or items that do not exist in the world of Conan. Such as robot or ninja, or Robotninja.
4. Names of NPCs already existing in the game or any of the related works associated with Robert Howard and the Age of Conan game world. This includes any of the deities associated with the Conan pantheon.
If you wish to appeal a name change please send a mail to nameappeals@ageofconan.com. Include your previous name, new name, server name, and account name.

Thank You for the understanding.

As you are a moderator could you explain why the word Drunk does not clarify for any of the above, you have an item called a Drinking Cape that allows you to gett free Drink that makes you "DRUNK" First hour into the game you have a quest to get alchahol for an alcholic. Or is the naming convention another one of many things in this game that either a.) is completly broken or b.) human error by inept programmers?
What are we supposed to understand and in what way is that word a profanity? And why would Drunken be a masking of Runk?!?!?
Sometimes it does happen...for example, the word *runk* is added as it is offensive in some countries...then you go in game and try to use the word *drunk* to name a guild...the result will be d**** due to the filters.
So is not *DRUNK* that is filtered but *RUNK* only.
