In Game Harrassment

[Locke_Cole]

So, I have an Arab name, as I am an Arab. Some players in the game are rather Islamophobic, and assume that I am the people they hate. I have had some problems with people in game, and on Team Speak, and it has made for a poor experience for me. Is there a way in which I might change my name, somehow?

I apologize for the immaturity of the players you have encountered. Report the players for racial harassment and blacklist as needed. I would advise against using TeamSpeak or any other voice communication programs with players who participate in this harassment.

I do not believe you will receive a valid name change opportunity until name change operations are permitted around implementation of 2.0.

Agreed.
Individuals have a problem ith the name Mustaffa? Wasn't their a character by the same in the first FF Tactics?

It makes me think of Simba's dad from the Lion King. That cat was a straight up boss.

i would say send a ticket to SE and they should be able to help you out with it. on that not no one should be be treated wrong cause of there name or race.

[Locke_Cole]

I agree with you both in regards to your moral sentiment. Currently I am stuck in a server with little people, but those who are here, are not the greatest. As for the ticket idea, I have sent 3 tickets now, maybe I should send it in a different manner, any suggestions?

Haters gonna hate, don't change your name if you don't want to - but also, try not to take things so hard. I'm also Arab, and my LS-mates call me a terrorist, while I call them dirty spics, crackers, Canadians, gingers, and so on (those are the nicer examples xD; ); in 99% of cases people are just being friendly in a coarse manner, and if you really dislike it, you can just send them a tell explaining the situation and asking to not be referred to in such manners.

So the merge is coming, and I have asked each one of the 4 customer support departments, and the in game GM's to allow me to change my name. I have written a few emails to the customer support departments, I have ticket numbers, but no action taken yet. I do not want to get the players in trouble or something, just want to have some normal FF name... didn't think Islamophobia was in FF.

thats some grade A bullsh*t. fatcat has a point to tho, sometimes its just friendly (and obnoxious) teasing. my friends in RL call me 'fa@@ot' all the time, i call them trailer trash etc. but if they are serious about their insults, get your butt over to Excalibur, we'll treat you right. we dont put up with kinda nonsense
