    Just wanted to remind everyone that myself and Darkstarr are different people so don't @ me with your problems, haha.

    (My name was Darkstar before Alley Oop sent me the name change link)

    change it. really, you're just gonna keep getting them. pretty sure it's against forum rules, too:

    Naming Policy (All display names, both Account and Characters)

    Name restrictions apply to both in-game, forums, and chat areas that are under moderation by Portalarium. All names must be within the spirit of the game world and must not suggest or directly include any of the following topics:
    • Non-alphabetical characters (single spaces for multiple words are allowed)
    • Advertisements
    • Religious ideologies
    • Famous persons
    • Pornographic/Sexual references
    • Portalarium staff
    • Racial slurs
    • Illegal activities
    • Threats and real world violence
    • Pledge titles

    It is not a violation. It is completely different. If the OP doesn't want to be confused, they will change it. starr and star are totally different.

    doesn't have to be identical, the rule is that it can't suggest port staff and if it weren't suggesting it he wouldn't keep getting misdirected messages.

    I made this name the week the game went to Alpha. I didn't even have a clue who Darkstarr was, lol. I've gone by Darkstar in every game since 2004, I was unable to see into the future and predict someone else liked the same name.

    Thanks for the link, I had no idea I could change my name!

    It suggests a celestial body not a name or surname. There is a difference. Look it up!

    Noted and not your or my responsibility. He'll pay the fee if it bothers him so much.

    Still not a violation.

    I changed my name, no fee. When I created my character the game prevented me from using Darkstar so no troubles there.

    I dunno... It definitely does not seem ok if I choose to go around as "Lord Brittish." Darkstar is a bit too close to Darkstarr, if you ask me.

    Ah. That's the distinction. In the game vs. in the forums. It's good that the game wouldn't let you do that.

    Should we deny anyone named Chris? Point taken. And hopefully @Alley Oop understands that I have no ill will nor wanted to drive her opinion into the dirt. It still remains that Star and Starr is different regardless of dev naming. That is all.

    If you all could please meet me in game, I would love to slirp your meat from your bones. That is all.

    No. It isn't. Just frustration from some avatars (that I cannot eat)

    Its all in your head. Human meat tastes like chicken. Just eat chicken.

    As for the OP -- my condolences. Not all of us can be Darkstarr.
