What's with all the names that are classed as obscene for vendor names? "master" "enhanced" and "chitin" now all seem to be classed as obscene for me.

I really don't see why I can't name one of my vendors "Chitin Armor" another "Master Tailor Clothing" and another "Enhanced Clothes", am I wrong to want these thing?

Malkere Inc. was obscene for my house sign. Had to change it to Malkere Incorporated, which for some reason I absolutely DID NOT want to do. Don't know why, but it bugged the crap out of me.

Even weapons is considered obscene...

How am I supposed to tell people what's in my vendor?

Oh thank goodness I'm not the only one having to go through this frustration also! (Not that I'm glad we're both frustrated)

Other things that come out as obscene are

"Medicinal"

"Medical"

"Supplies"

I finally tried Pharmaceuticals .. :-)

But it is ridiculous that names that are part of a profession are coming out as obscene (such as Master Tailor and Medic)

Hopefully it's just a little glitch

The only thing I could come up with is that "master" might be used for a fishing vendor. Can you imagine seeing a "Master Baiter"?

"master" "chitin" "enhanced" "medicinal" "medical" "supplies" "Inc." "weapons" "general"

all considered obscene. I've just gotta shake my head that some dev actually spent the time and effort to get these names banned from the vendor name list for some reason. Too bad they don't put the same effort into bug fixing .

Crazy about the "naked" not being obscene!

A guild mate used to have a Wookie vendor which he named "Prostitute" (he's not very...mature you could say) and for some reason that wasn't obscene. He got rid of it because we just housed all our wares in one store...but seriously, "prostitute and naked" not being obscene but "wookie and medical" is??

I swear sometimes I think they just enjoy ticking us off.
