So regarding offensive names...

[SenorPatty]

Thinking about that thread that got deleted today and then thinking how does someone just looks up names like that(unless, of course, you encounter it ingame) I decided to simply type in the character lodestone the word-and I repeat here: THE WORD, NOT THE NAME- "racist".


Wow

Just wow

I need an Arrested Development gif with Gob's famous line "I've made a huge mistake".

I mean, I'm still laughing at how ludicrous the whole thing is but wooow.

I like names that have some creativity behind it. I wish I could have that, but I chose a dumb food when I was a kid. Now I'm stuck with it. I haven't even had a churro since like 2011, and it was from Sam's Club.

[Vahlnir]

Yeah, it was something alright. Just when I think I've seen everything someone comes along and proves me dead wrong.

imo whether it be by name or by insult, if you default to racist, sexist or homophobic slurs, the only one who should feel foolish is yourself. If you want to be edgy or insult someone, at least put an ounce of creativity into it. With everything you could mock, choosing race, sexuality or gender is just so Boomer it hurts.

Please explain boomer to me. I dont understand this meme. Usually it's young people making fun of you for things. Old people don't give a crap anymore in my experience.

It's a term often applied incorrectly to belittle anybody born before a certain point, namely the 'baby boomer' generation. Often it's just another form of discrimination, ironically, since it's technically ageism when used negatively - and anybody living in the real world will be well aware that the 'boomer' generation are a very mixed bag when it comes to their views.

It follows an interesting trend, though. Often those who get up in arms over discrimination tend to resort to it themselves, even if unknowingly.

As for the topic at hand, I can't recall seeing any inappropriate names within the game itself. If I ever did, I'd probably just shrug and move on with my life. Maybe report it if it was genuinely in poor taste.

[Avidria]

Most of the inappropriate names I've seen in game have been ah... risqué. More than anything. Some are funny. Most are eyeroll worthy.

I just ignore them. If it's bad enough, maybe toss a report. Think I've seen maybe one name that was bad enough for me to report it though, and it was so long ago that I don't even remember what it was.

Ive seen much worse names than SturmChurro, do all the time.

The thing about your name is that while it’s silly, it’s unique as well, and not something boring like “XYZ (take your pick at a first name) Whisperwind” or “XYZ (same here) Skylord”, that’s the only two that come to my mind but any last name that has a arbitrary concept followed by a person, place, or thing in the same name are so boooooooooring. They’re not memorable at all.

Boomers is a generational term. Generally associated with racism, sexism, homophobia, complaining and general grumpiness

Honestly, from my schooling experience, that perfectly describes millenials, or whatever they call people born in the 80s and 90s.
