Bizarre Name Restriction

#1 - Oct. 20, 2012, 8:59 a.m.

I wanted a norn character named “Frost Bite” and because of the French useage of the word “bite” it was disallowed.

Neither can I use “Frostbite”, “Frost Biter” or “Frostbiter”.

This restriction caused some vampires from GW to have their monster text censored,
and now perfectly reasonable names are censored in GW2, which includes several pets with the Bite skill…

I am not French and I can only view this censorship as bizarre.

Please remove this naming restriction on all servers but FR ones.

*edited for better understanding.

Hello everyone,

it’s quite interesting how you wonder why words/ shorts aren’t edited by the filter while others are. Does that mean you want those words to be filtered, too? Feel free to suggest some, then.

Greetings
