| Author | Nick Rule |
|---|
1.11. Character's nickname should not contain foul language, vulgar or slang expressions, alcohol and/or drug propaganda, insults and racial intolerance. Using a nickname that would trick other players into considering its bearer an official clan member is forbidden. An easy-to-read nickname usage is recommended. It must not represent a gibberish combination or carry an obvious sexual or insulting context.
Characters whose nicknames violate this rule, can be blocked regardless of their combat level.
Is it also breaking of rules if nick is on other language? |

| it can be n other language but not insultive |
| Then our friend CIPA(VAGINA[PL]) can have that nick? |
It's not breaking the rules if it's another language.
And it's breaking the rules if it's a word in another language but it's written like an dirty word in english. |
should not contain foul language, vulgar or slang expressions
It is breaking the rule if your character's nickname has any of that regardless of what language you are using. It doesn't matter what language your nickname is in, but it cannot be an insult, look like an insult, sound like one, etc. |
@6:
I think that is not totally correct. There are words which in one language mean something not harmful whilst in another language are really bad words. E.g., if you translate the word "pot" (poker) from English to Polish, the same word from Polish means in Romanian the male reproductive organ in a vulgar way. One shouldn't study all the bad words from all the languages to choose his/her nick. My point here is that here it should be no strict rule and there should be a human referee to decide if the nick is appropriate or not. |
| That's why punishments are not automatic and are decided by human beings. The word "pot" in English is also slang for marijuana in English. |
lol. this reminds me of the japanese company Mitsubishi. for quite some time they had no idea why their super successful jeep Mitsubishi Pajero was selling awfully in Spain. they had to rename the model xD
about nicknames - the official game language is english. inappropriate are considered words (masked/abbreviated) in english or international well known foul words. |
Also, LordswmGod is not acceptable of anything like that

Vulgar name |
| i guarantee their a lot of those that break that rule but im not going to list them for it take way to much time |
| Can anyone explain why LordswmGod was considered foul nickname? (don't tell me to open a new thread with my question because I don't intend to open another thread in which the same topic is to be discussed) |
My guess is: "Using a nickname that would trick other players into considering its bearer an official clan member is forbidden. "
The rule is worded a bit fuzzy, but basicly it means that it's bad to have a nickname that can be confused with administration or things like that. |
| Well, in my opinion that was an exaggerated decision from the admins because everyone knows who are the Twin Gods here (and not 1 God who could be a Wizard Goddess in LWM, who knows?). But, They are the Gods, They decide, not going to question Their decisions. :D |
