World Of Warcraft: Character Naming Policy Revealed!

| 23 Mar 2004 14:10

Last night the Character Naming Policy for WoW was revealed on the WoW Community Website. It clearly shows which names will not be allowed and what actions will be taken against people found with names that break the Naming Policy. An example:

Racial/Ethnic

This category includes both clear and masked names which:

Promote racial/ethnic hatred
Are recognized as racial/ethnic slurs
Allude to symbols of racial/ethnic hatred

If a player is found to have such a name, he/she will:

Be prompted to select a new name
Be temporarily suspended from the game
Likely be given a final warning any further TOS violations will result in permanent suspension

While these repercussions may seem harsh, we feel very strongly that these names have no place within Azeroth due to their extremely offensive nature.
