not to mention that there will be no way to insure that anyone under 18 doesn't join the server.
and, so what you had a name genericed. everyone(not literally) does at some point. 
No thanks for the reasons above.

Yeah, there's absolutely no way to verify that someone's really legal age over the Internet. It is, quite literally, impossible.

What makes you think someone under the age of 18 reported your characters name?
One question to the OP... what was the name?

While this is a good point, I would think he means that on his magical "Adults Only" Server, the rules would be such that you could have "bad words" in your name and the Mods would not generic... because it is allowed, regardless of if there is a petition or not.|

I can't imagine I ever will. I don't use "naughty" concepts in my names, and I don't do character plagiarism... so... I can't see how I will get smacked with one. |
And to the op /unsigned be more mature.

Funny story. I've been to a bar, nearly the definitive example of an "adults only" establishment, that would give you warnings for swearing, and even kick you out if you kept it up. This wasn't in my current rural area of residence, either, but in the suburbs of Los Angeles.

I've never been genericized, and that's with character's like Major Ride (part of a joke group me and some friends, some female, created and played around with until one of our number: Major Cleavage, did get genercized...of course, all our names related to our powers and roles in the group: Ride was the porter, Cleavage used a broad sword, Bang had a gun, Burn was a fire tank and Crush was an earth troller)|

and Satyr Dae...though Satyr is, admittedly, a milder form of the name Satyr Nau

Precisely. People keep asking for a "mature" server and every time it comes down to wanting to do juvenile things on it. Fact of the matter is, if you get name-busted for something, it's not because the game isn't "adult enough," it's because it's in incredibly poor taste. Believing an "adult" server would permit this is believing that adults have poor taste. As an adult myself, I'd never set foot in the place, and I'm sure juvenile teens would be lining up to join.

Actually, with CoV, that game is 16+...you'd think they'd give a little more leeway.
I can't believe all the responses against a more mature oriented server. THough this is more for the bio's than anything.
After being banned for a bio that's no worse than anything you can see on TV, I think the rules can be a little to tight.

You realize none of you know what name he/she choose.
For all you know the name was "Sexy Mistress" and he got it genericed for that reason.

There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.

Also, to the OP: call me old fashioned, or just old... but wanting to use a "bad name" makes you the immature one does it not?
I personally do not take offense to much but the phrase "wasn't even that bad" suggests that you knew it might get genericized so don't complain about it.

Really? It's kind of hard to make out, but I'm pretty sure mine says T for Teen on it.

what about older players who would like to play in a more relaxed way and not have a moderator ban everything?
So I suggest an 18+ server.
thanks
