My original character in WoW was called takethepants, but it was actually reported.
Why the hell would someone find that name offensive?

Must be a WOW nerd thing :p
I used to play on Kael'Thas, but then I switched to SWC which I had friends on. It was an RP realm and my name wasn't offensive, but apparently some hardcore RPer got me on a technicality. I found the email I got about the warning. I honestly don't know how Rockblocked doesn't fall into this category, but whatever.

Even though it was listed as an RP server there was like 4 people on the server who RPed. I actually joined the server (besides my friends who also didn't RP) because the seller economy was great since most people were terrible raiders and just bought gold and spent it on the AH. Hardcore RP is dead in WoW with the exception of a few little niche pockets.It kind of ruins immersion if some dude named Takethepants is running around. On a RP server, you could have at least displayed a bit more creativity and found some way of getting "takethepants" across without actually just spelling it out.
I used to play WoW with a few of my mates on Kilrogg. We all had names that were "Omgits<ourname>" and none of us ever got pulled for having a sentence for a name
Those naming policies don't apply to servers that aren't RP servers.
