[GM]Danuve is an asshat....Follow

Now I've been here since release and I never really bothered making a ton of money. As of this morning I had about 400k including armor.

Last month I made a mule to get Cooking to 100 named Tarufondler, even held 1/2 my gil on this character incase I needed to make an expensive purchase in Windurst. I've been walking around for 1 month now and no one has complained about my name, no tells, nothing. If anything people have thought it's funny.

Now i'm sitting in my moghouse planning on what to make next in Cooking @ Lv. 57, I get warped to my home point, then to Mordion Gaol.

This is how the conversation went:

[GM]Danuve: Hello traveler. Are you aware of why you're here?

Me: No idea really, I've never been outside of town so I don't know if I accidently MPKed or something.

[GM]: Your name?

Me: Oh.

Me: No ones ever complained before, i've had this character for about a month now, the name's just a joke.

[GM]: Your name is in violation of the rules on PlayOnline.com

Me: Sorry I didn't know, can I change it?

[GM]: As a result your charcter is to be deleted.

Me: Alright. Can I make a quick run to the auction house and send all my gil?

[GM]: No, the name is unfit for the world of Vana Diel.

[GM]: No the name cannot be changed.

Me: You're kidding right?

Me: I've been playing the game for 9 months and you're just going to delete because someone can't take a joke?

Me: 1/2 my gil, gone, I can't run and send it realy quick?

[GM]: I'm sorry the character has been decided to be deleted and will not be released from Mordion Gaol.

[GM]: Best of luck to you.

Me: Yeah, perfect luck.

Me: You're just going to delete my charascter, with no warning, and I lose gil that took me 4 months to make.

Me: Can you at least tell me who complained so I can blacklist them?

Me: I've heard of people changing their names before, why can't I just do that?

(1/2 hour passes)

Me: Whatever, I'm logging because apparently you don't want to answer my questions and feel like deleting 1/2 my work because of some extra-sensitive prick that can't take a @#%^ing joke.

Now, if anyone can explain why the hell my character was deleted without warning and why I couldn't change my name, that'd be great because I guess this GM just REALLY sucks *** at his job.

[GM]Danuve, if you're somehow reading this...

GO **** YOURSELF!

Now I know that I posted this on the main board but I wanted it here because I have a simple request.

If you know who called the GM on me and lost me 200k, please tell me, I want to blacklist this person so I never have to see them again.

Oh my god...he can't actually do that! Everytime someone has had an unappropriate name, I've heard that MOST GMs let the player change it. But wow this guy...I hope he gets fired...if you ever need any help man, give me a tell.

if a character has an innapropriate name the name must be changed not deleted. complain formally to square enix. get him fired. your name is allowed to be changed. that is my understanding. the only name ive had a problem with is bigforeskin. thats the only name i havent liked. your name was funny.

Formally complain and see if your character can be restored. if not then ask why the name could not be changed.

If you complain enough, they will have to do something. If nothing else, let you send the gil to your main char.

Actually in the rules, it states that the only way you can change your name, is if it wasn't inappropriate when you decided to name your character. Otherwise the character is deleted. Everyone always yells at GMs because they do their job. In the end it's the players fault, not the GMs faultThey will strictly follow the rules, because it's their job. Just my take on it, I'm certain someone will ***** at me for having an opinion that differs from the =\.

Sorry to here that this happened Cecion, but man, you, the genius of the long gone ArmyofTwilight linkshell, I would have thought you better than to take a name even remotely close to being offensive. But also, I've heard of many people that had what are claimed to be 'offensive' names, and they've only had to change them, Giantovary is an example, they made him/her (not 100% sure on gender) change his/her name, now he/she is called Giantegg. The whole having to delete your character is bull.

I've intentionally named all of my worthless mules offensive names just to see what would happen. I've been playing since the NA PC release. Almost 1 yr now. The names are

Phucknut
Harryballs
Ballzack
Sac

Never had a complaint...your unlucky bro.

Dont put them all in the same bunch. Many of them do their job well...but who will really talk about something that went well?We mostly only hear about the worst horror stories. Judging a population by a few of its members is wrong. But seeing the kind of post you come with i just believe you dont know what is right or wrong....or worst you dont care.

Btw SE came out with a game that you certainly mostly appreciate if you play it.

BTW#2 your post didnt add anything new to what seems a one way debate.....neither mine lol

Wow... definately contest that.

That just isn't right... Sounds like that GM has having a bad day.

I've never dealt with GMs except once ([GM]Kemmorrak I think it was). When I got stuck in the river in Windurst Woods... XD He had to warp me out. Anyways, your name is not offensive to anyone, even tarus... I've seen you in Bastok before, and I think i told my ls "Tarufondler scares me... O.o" I was jk of course. I also saw this guy named Weiner once.. haven't seen him in a while. He was probably BALEETED! I'd make a character named Gmdanuvesucks, and laugh at him next time he deleted my character. I am sorry for your loss, Mr. Tarufondler.

they should jst get rid of GMs for anything except technical issues and bugs. they should let us do what the heck we want. this isnt really a game for kids no matter what the box says. I think id take my chances without GM's.. at least for a little while.
