Seems like all the servers I've been on tend to be bad for this sort of thing. : / But then again, they're all 'old', I guess you could say, original from when the game started. And I think the combination of people getting 'that name is unavailable' plus the general age being more toward high school instead of college lends to stupidity of this sort.
It's funny, back during the original game they used to police names so hard. You couldn't even have special characters, even if they were used properly. Now a name full of special characters is the norm, and actually the least offensive. :x And for all that offensive names are reported and changed, people just keep coming up with new ones or new ways to spell previously banned ones. I just wish it weren't 'cool' to always come up with ones that are anti-women, anti-gay, anti-Jewish, etc. It's not funny, it's not cool, ARGH. Anyway... ^^;
