Admin Notice: Meme-related and other OORP names

[NOVA-5]

Guys, you need to realise that this isn't about names such as "Luke Skywalker", "Stormtropper" or similar.
It's about "get.rekt", "SUCKI_SUCKI_5_DORRAR", "ayy.de.la.lmao" and stuff like that.
More clear now?

No, not clear at all really.
This thread said we've grace for 7 days yet today you's went ahead &
deleted ships for it anyway, ie: Lerdi's above.
True it was 2 hours before making this thread but seems a bit sly saying you's
discuss these things before hand like you's say you's do.

Actually, we got a violation report regarding his char name.
So yea.

About time.

Indeed.

This Galaxy is vast; its wonders and beauty are almost unfathomable. But the galaxy also hides dark secrets, some of which have lain dormant since the beginning of time itself. There is a danger in secrets, both in seeking and in knowing. Some things are meant to be hidden from view. Some mysteries defy understanding, and sometimes even the things we think we know are untrue. Some secrets should remain untouched.

You's had the mind to do something about these meme's, a warning for the poor lad would have done it.

I'm not attacking anyone here, just trying to protect myself from these harsh measures...

1.6 Character names must be inRoleplay and the use of excessive symbols, profanity, country tags, memes, pop-culture references as player characters is not allowed. For guidelines, look here

It's not like that's a new thing, to be fair.

Regarding the recent tangentially related sanction regarding some poor names, isn't (wasn't?) the standard action against that infraction a rename to a more innocuous thing, and a fine, rather than this "press delete " action?

Fair as in renaming my Nova-5 because of it, sounds reasonable enough aye.

There's no exceptions for people being silly, trying to be funny. "Nova-5" isn't breaking the rules, it isn't an import from another game, or a 'meme' - you seem to be under the illusion that everything that isn't within freelancer universe isn't allowed, that isn't the case. The reason that it's so harsh is that people are still doing it without repercussion lately, trying to be funny when it's just breaking immersion, being obnoxious.

I could fly around on a ship named Auzari if I wanted to, as long as I give it some form of character - eg not to troll/not rp.

[NOVA-5]

A fair cop what you're saying Auzari but like Sombra said, it's not like it's a new thing "pointing rule 1.6"
at me when the illusion you say was a fact and happened.
