Just a heads up this seems to be monitored pretty heavy at the moment. 4 people I know who were messing around all received 3 hour bans for the following names within a MINUTE of talking in trade chat, and one of them was on the character for over an hour without saying a word just to make it clear. Names they were banned for: ******, cocksucker, fag and dirtycunt.

Can't help but laugh at all the extra work Blizzard must be doing to monitor this right now as opposed to just taking the servers down and fixing it. Probably too scared due to all the recent backlash about 6.1

A cool name you can pick up that wasn't available due to the filter though is King or anything with King in it. It was flagged by the mature name filter for the last 9 1/2 years.

edit: first one was the n word.

My name is now "Gm". I can live with that.

[Chokladmos]

Getting "That name contains mature language" now, did they fix it?

EDIT: Nvm

[lilsniff]

Haha, I got a char named Gm aswell
couldn't rep, have to spread :|

[Elektropop]

It would seem some names have a different sort of protection that hasn't been lifted yet.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention. Have rep

[Elektropop]

This is fixed on US.

What do you mean with "fixed"? Are the names now protected? Have you lost the names you took? Any actions to your account?
