Code:

[--- ---] Atreyu Mage of the Cold Flame Tribe

Seeing names like that on the who list, now that's a major bug imho.

First, I don't see how its a bug.

Second, its his very first character, so instead of giving him a hard time or whining about it on the forums maybe you'd like to help him along?

I did try, but I knew none but my native tongue back then (my char). The bug is... what happened and no-one ELSE tried to help him with the matter? How can such a rip-off stand on the who list for like... 15 days? More?

I don't even know what its a rip-off of.

See: Classic literature, Michael Ende's "The Neverending Story", name oif the main character. A rather bold rip-off, not from a cheap pulp fiction book.

Juggernaut, calm down. At the very day of the creation of said character I was around with Achernar. We both were discussing about the name's origin and we know about the book "The Neverending Story".
But, that charcter is NOT a rip-off as he does not predent to BE Atreyu. It's his first character and roleplays a mage without any in game references to said book. Thus, we decided to let him go with that name though reminding him about our rules for the futur.

Okay...

My next meatshield will be Gandalf The Black, a hellion of Sargas...

I respect the Imms' decision of course. However, as Fepel pointed out, the fact that you do not RP the very same character does not make it valid regarding name policy imho. I can name my character James Bond, but as long as I do not RP a british spy, it is alright? Hmm...

I'm not saying its right, but I am asking you to give the newbie a bit of slack; I'd rather he stick around and learn SK and be shown what to do rather than be chastized. There's a big difference between someone's first character doing this and an oldbie like you, Juggs.

Need I invoke Raynor?

Benzo, in which part of my post did you sense a complain against the newbie? We have all made and we all still do mistakes, many of which are of newbish flavor

All I am saying, is that there should not be such a bold rip-off seen on the who list, and rip-offs have started to become a normality. That's all. I don't get it why you are so stuck with the idea that I have anything against the newbie player
