Binomial Nomenclature and /tell /target commands

[Shougun]

Well to be fair, a lot of folks pick long names because they want to be left alone. Back in the day it helped you from getting so many tells/spam.

On the other hand, there are exceptions. For example, my husband (Ryahl MacBannon) used the name Nicophorus Delphinoriean in EQ1. While this was complex (typing out Nicophorus), it was much worse in AC when they required someone to type out the entire name to send a tell to someone. After that, I made him pick a new name (thus Ryahl).

I thought Drakesbane would be easy for people to remember spelling (drake.. +s +bane) but for some reason most people remember Wubrant but mess up my last name. My name is fairly long but pretty simple in concept (imo).

Sounds like a great idea to me! but then my name won't act as unnecessary tell repellent....

I know where Alhanelem Amidatelion got his name and thats pretty cool but my lord lol - I can't imagine spelling that out everytime. Thanks for Elexia showing me a noob I guess I only have to spell it once though :P
