Confusing Restricted Names

[VictorTheed]

I made Moses one time and when I tried to name him Moses it wouldn't let me so I had to name him Oldtestament Prophet.

I wasn't trying to mock Christians or Jews, I respect Moses cause he was one of the coolest people in The Bible, I made him a highlander and all that and played BLM cause it's the closest weapon to a staff like Moses used in The Bible to part the sea for the Israelites to escape Pharaoh and he used it to out do the Egyptian Sorcerers' when they cast their rods as snakes and cast his and it ate em up.

I would be very surprised if "Moses" was the problem, unless there's some extra meaning to the name that I'm not aware of either.

Did you try it with any other surname options? More likely it was spelling something obscure between the end of the forename and the start of the surname.

If I was creating a game I would blacklist names of famous religious figures because sometimes people use those names with the intention to cause offence. I have seen that sort of thing happen already in other games. It's much less of a headache for game customer service and players to deny access to those sort of names, than to risk the fallout that can happen from their misuse. Especially if an incident became famous in social media.

Wow, I'd never even heard of that before.
I could understand "Thule Society" as a phrase being banned, but not just the word on its own.

I never heard of it either, I'm kind of surprised the GMs would have even thought to ban it. I'm guessing there's a story there.

That's an incredibly silly restriction, because that is still a name people have today. Imagine being told your own damn name is not allowed because it's a restricted term.

I'd take a shot in the dark that it may be due to the Muslim Religion Moses is a revered prophet and they ban the use of religious figures in anything. There was a whole thing with them banning the movie Noah due to Noah being a prominent figure in the Quran. Not saying it's the reason but it could be possible.
