Doc Holliday has been warned for:
Rules Broken Wrote:1.4 - All character, faction, ship or station names must be easily readable and roleplay appropriate. The use of profanity, country tags, memes, pop-culture references, non-English letters, or excess symbols is not allowed.
Consequences:
Doc Holliday is not an original character. Now, I'm well aware that you've been calling yourself and your character this for longer than I've really been playing Discovery, but the rule should be applied equally to all, regardless of past precedent. We can't reasonably ask our members to rename while allowing our own staff to continue to break this rule. Please post here with your desired new character name. Thank you.
If you require evidence, you may request such via PM from a Staff member. Only the accused or an official faction leader of the accused person's faction may request such. Once you have the evidence, and if you wish to dispute it, you may post in the Sanction Thread below. Do not continue PM'ing a staff member, as that will result in your Appeal being denied. If you PM a staff or post in the sanction thread and you are not directly involved, you are consenting to be subjected to the reprisal of my choice which may involve in game repercussions up to a ban. Blaming members of your immediate family, neighbors, friends, pets, and assorted Orcs, Trolls and any other legendary creatures may result in the use of Admin Right #CTE 750AE

We've reconsidered. The character may have one day been a copy-paste of Doc Holliday, the historical figure - or more problematically, the character from Tombstone based on said figure -- but it's clearly grown far beyond that by now and stands very much on its own. We'd be idiots to get in your way of your roleplay. Consider this sanction null and void.
