Force name change?
I do not agree with the server policy. Please delete my accounts
(Is this enough to delete an account? I already deleted the game client from the laptop)
My warlock Pagan is on the list too. Is he banned too? I go to the official wow website - search for pagan - not how many characters with such a nickname immediately appeared in the weapons room.
Lying does not improve the game, and creating problems for players does not improve the atmosphere of the game.

There's no lying involved. You are quoting a post that wasn't addressed at you or in reply to you. GMs are able to decide a name not in the list requires a renaming for multiple reasons, and that sort of decision isn't up to debate, especially on the Forums. Feel free to contact the Head GM if you want to make a case about it, posting here won't get you anywhere. Either way, you have been saying "farewell" and how you want your accounts deleted, so there's no point in leaving you with Forum access on them, yes?
First of all, I apologize for accusing people of having modified their game intentionally to bypass restrictions. I forgot the name restrictions are part of the client's locale. {Insert American forgetting about other languages stereotype here.}
Second of all, at some point after WOTLK the name restrictions were relaxed. I came across someone named Boobs on the BNET armory, for example. But we can't go back and just enable the names because our English realms using mostly English clients are going to be hit by the client-side word list preventing use. We originally enforced the word list last year but this recent wave of renames is from an update to enforce it on the Russian locale too.
Third, if anyone wants to argue about what names should be allowed then take it up with the word list ripped from the en-US locale. https://pastebin.com/raw/7GR906Ey
Also the reason Blackrock is unaffected is because the realm hasn't had the latest updates pushed yet.
Anyway this issue led me to the internet for information, and I found out that ppl are able to do changes to that list (e.g. disabling restriction) and so use the "forbidden" names.

I spent 6 coins on a name change to set my name as Summoner, since it was taken for a while. After that I was able to play with that name for 2 month, then was forced to change it. So, is there any chance for me to either get my 6 coins back, or, as a compensation, have the name "Summoner" removed from that list and given back to me? Is this an issue I should appeal to the head GM?
You're not getting the name back. It's not allowed (by the list) and you've used modifications to obtain the name.
Did you expect for it to stay? Modifying the game to intentionally bypass the name restrictions is not allowed.
You got a lesson for those 6 coins.
