Is that the only way, I'm scared of him. Is there a way I can report my display name as offensive and have a forced name change? It's another name for a very very bad man.

If you mean a character name, you'd have to use the Value Added Services to change your own, or submit a ticket of complaint to the GM team for someone else's.

If you mean that guy here on the forum, only the admins (red/purple names I think) can change his name, you'll have to ask one of them directly or report that guy's posts.

But... I thought Babylon was ye-old-city-of-sin so why is the king of such a city complaining about offensive display names.

You can submit a ticket. My team will review your reason for wanting to change and see if it is a worthwhile reason.

Changing the nickname can cause some issues, so we don't like to do it unless it is very much needed. If you would like, after you submit your ticket, you can PM me with the ticket number and I can offer some further insight.

Google names of satan. The correct thing to do is freak out. I'm not really offended by people who would name themselves after. And I may not be big on religion. But I'm certainly not into promoting the devil. o_o

Looks like a lot of people enjoyed ruling Babylon. I personally do not see it as offensive, especially since it is a title, as opposed to a proper name. However, if you have submitted your ticket, I will see what I can do.

Iono what's worse, my name being another name for satan, or my reaction to it. I don't blame any strange looks and/or laughs. I'm not usually this ridiculous y'all. :x Ticket gets stuck on loading when I submit. I guess here's to hoping it goes though.

You are now aware that: Babylon was actually a real major city/empire at some point, ruled by various kings over the course of time.

Character name filter is "sort of" useless because 'most,' not all, of the offensive names are not in English language. If you know how to speak more than 1 language, you will see most of those non English or Japanese names obnoxiously offensive. When I was browing around Pront, I jot down some names and did a tad of google translating, I know they are not that accurate but it's only a word and I asked some people if the meaning I found was right and they most of the time say it is, to know what does his/her name means and it turns-out that it isn't a pleasing meaning.
