I didn't modify anything. As you may read above, the server couldn't interact with the Russian client locale until recently, so that's how it happened.

hello everyone.
today i wanted to log in to my char with nick "Noob"(rogue) on BlackRock server. but i couldnt i dont know why? it force me to change my nick that im using for 3 or 4 month. i have screenshots with gameplay on char with this nick i mean to proof that this nick is mine. please help me get back this nick. i used this nick cuz im really noob on rogue class. i just began playing on rogue and reached 1.5k ratio. last time i played was 5 or 7 days ago. i remember there wasnt any problms . but today i cant log in. i dont know what to do and i dont want to change my nick. be cuz it isnt insulting or violence nick(sorry for my english im from asia english is lil bit hard to me).
Let me just share my experience with you. The nick won't be given back by any circumstance. There's a list of nicknames that are prohibited by Blizzard itself, and now warmane servers are fully interacting with this list on any client locale (English or else). So if your nickname is on the list, you have to change it and may never use it again. Warmane has decided so and nothing will change that decision. We gotta deal with the sad truth.
how can i check that list os names?
i checked that list and found that noob and noobsaibot cant be used as a nick.... why the server using stupid policy for this nicks? i do understand nick about American N word or nineoneone or something like this tragedical occaisons. like recently Goegre Floyd. but why noob and noobsaibot. warmane is pirate server and i dont pretend that i know what to do and how to improve in-game athmosphere with players. but the nick NOOB, seriously?
i hope im checking correct in this site https://pastebin.com/raw/7GR906Ey
That was the official list from retail during the expansion. You were only ever able to pick that nickname due to an oversight, you were never meant to have had it in the first place.
The restricted names list disallows any names starting with "Captain". It's because of this part of Blizzards naming policy during wotlk:
Quote:
Minor violations include any names that:
...
- Consist of any title prefix attached to a character's name, fantasy-based or not (e.g. Kingmike, Presidentsanchez).
My Druid's name was Takura, is not in the list. It's supposed to be an "anagram" of my name, does it mean something in someone language?
10 year old bug huh. I'm skeptical of this. Probably they let it slide until they decided to make a point. Interesting bunch at mm.
