Yeah there are some real pips in there. I remember the filter on the chat room wouldn't except Christmas, Japan, or nipple, because it contained the words Christ, J a p, and n i p.

"Starfighters" is prohibited too... while "Starships" is not.

It goes with city names, character names, and guild titles as well. As a guild leader, I can grant the title "Guild Tailor" but not the title "Guild Architect". Hell, I can even say damn on these forums but not WT F.



WT F is up with that?

i cant call my guild lame as a sister guild but i can....


name my factory: "Baretta Gun Co, Buy a Gun,Buy one for your son. Were bowling for columbine too.


or"Baretta, ArmingSpooks an' Pimps since 1882"

After screwing my profession Inow need tosell enhancers...Therefore I'm goingto name the vendor "Enhancers". Well, that's what I thought... but you guessed it, you can't name a vendor "Enhancers".... lol.






That's why I have a Dctor Enhncer vendor. Occassionally, people tell me my spelling stinks, but its not a big deal. D'octor En'hancer would work too.

i just tried to name a vendor : Weapons CL30 or lower didnt work, then i tried Weapons lvl30 or lower which also didnt work. Would be nice if it did so new players can find it easier.

Nope, not a bug Mine is 'Wookie Wear' which is a bit annoying but at least people know what's in there.

Strangly 'Ithorian Wear' is fine to have as a vendor name...

Numbers don't work. I remember once having to set up a meat buying vendor labeling it: Buying Herb Meat Sixty cpu.

If you can't see something wrong with the fact that you even need a work around for this, there is little hope for any of us. Think I'll go burn some Shake-N-Spear. Those boys are just naughty....

Enhancer isn't allowed for the same reason Merchandise isn't..the word "Han" is in the middle of it.

No..I'm not kidding.
