"Yinxisys", High Elf AM

[FeistyDeity]

I have a character stuck in Winds of Chaos, an Archmage called Yinxisys, or until a few hours ago "Praythegayaway".

I think we can already see what has happened.

I'm not here to argue in favor of getting the name back. In my opinion, it was a relatively funny and ironic name for a male elven cleric-y type, and was meant to mock the principle of the "ex-gay" movement in modern religion, not the sexual orientation itself. Not that I want to use this as an argument of authority, but I'm saying this as a gay man myself.

However, I can understand if you want to uphold a somewhat neutral naming policy and I'm guessing this one was in a somewhat grey area. So I do not need my old name back.

It would be nice to see the ban removed (I don't think I've received a message telling me its duration), but if it's only 24 hours it's not a huge deal either. It's mainly a matter of it just not feeling nice to be disciplined then.

What I WOULD like however is a chance to choose a new name myself - I abhor auto-generated character names.

Something like "Hunky McMancake" would do.

Can see an exile/ ban on your account.

[Elven]

I've looked into your account and I see no exile added to it. Your character name was changed, as you stated for the above reason. You also receive an in game warning as it is against Terms of Service.

Exiles are not given when it's a simple name change, just a warning. Given that the logs say nothing about an exile, and I can't think of a logical reason for you to be there, it must be incorrect. If you are there, use your book of binding to get out.

Since this doesn't meet the requirements for an appeal, it'll be moved out of the ban appeal forum and will be locked. If you do require further assistance, contact me directly.
