Ok, let me get this straight.. You're bitching and moaning about being forced to start over and you were only ONE HOUR OLD? Granted, you mentioned that you were a youngling and that you would get over it. What really sealed your doom was the derogatory way in which you treated the immortal staff that was attempting to explain to you why the name was not satisfactory. Quite honestly I dont care how your name was pronounced, when I saw it, as when several other immortals saw it, we all thought it was pronounced a certain way. Was it? Maybe, maybe not. The point being, if as many of us thought that it was pronounced a certain way, can you understand why the name might cause a problem? Regarding immortal names.. Yes, there is an immortal with a Salvatore name. Does this mean that it is right? No. This was a special case, he was not one hour old when we noticed his name, he had put quite a bit of thought into his character, and had roleplayed him quite well. Did you do any of this? Not that we could determine. Would you have put a lot of work intothis character? Undoubtedly, which is why we asked you to start another char now, not later. One more things, I for one would not treat the immortal staff in such a belligerent way, it earns you no respect, and in fact, you simply appear a fool. Eryndorial, who will now step off his box.
