Greetings Mr. ******,
We are writing to inform you that one or more of your character names are in violation of our naming policy and has been temporarily changed. The Character Naming Policy is part of the Terms of Use that govern your play in World of Warcraft and, as such, must be adhered to. As a consequence of this breach of our Naming Policy, a warning has been placed on your account and your second character has been erased. Please note that although, on this occasion, for the unmarked character, we consider this a relatively minor offence, should any further violations of our Rules and Policies occur, this incident will be taken into consideration when determining the consequences to your account.
If you wish to change the name of your character from the one which it has been given, please page a GM in-game within 7 days with a suitable replacement name which complies with the Character Naming Policy. If you do not do this, the temporary name will become permanent. Please include a choice of, at least, 4 names in your order of preference, in case the name you have selected has already been taken by another player.
Please review our current Rules and Policies, they can be found at:
