Hello

Concerning the Naming Policy in game and the use of profanities on the forums:

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.

What are we supposed to understand and in what way is that word a profanity? And why would Drunken be a masking of Runk?!?!?

Im still waiting for the guild i made on a PVP server to have its name changed (Genocide)

There are a few guilds that need a quick ban then and only yesterday I saw the fat famous Scotish Darts Player running about.

Secondly I am sure even in Conans day people were not called Cock handlers.

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?

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.

Hope this makes sense
