In Reply to: What criteria do the Imms use for determining the suitability of a name? posted by Eric Prothero on November 9, 2000 at 22:28:20:
Sometimes they slip through the cracks and never get nuked. Sometimes it's talked over and they let it slide I guess. I mean, they have to see these guys. I don't question their judgement, they have their crap to worry about. (Go new shields & herbalforage!) I mean, sure, 'Ryan' is ridiculous, but I thought Kaine (an assassin with a mark on his face, Mark of Cain, are you kidding me?) was ridiculous too, but I kept seeing him around. I thought Desanguina was bad (Of/From Blood? WTF?) There are a lot of names that someone is going to find less than thrilling, sometimes the Pantheon agrees, sometimes it slides. Keep in mind, I'm saying I don't care for the names, not the characters themselves, of which I could give two tugs on a dead dog's cock. Hmm.. name your next char Eric and see what happens.
Lord knows how many people are running around with names right out of an English/X-Language dictionary.
