Posted November 8, 2018 Hello people of wurm. Just a general inquiry as to whether putting words like "Brothel" or "Bordello" in a deed name is against the Wurm T's & C's? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 8, 2018 From the rules post: Quote Content A ) You may not use sexually explicit, harmful, threatening, abusive, defamatory, obscene, hateful, racially or ethnically offensive language. - This includes workarounds, symbols, links, misspelling, and text within images. B ) You may not use images, videos, names, or avatars unsuitable for a young audience, or which would be likely to cause offense. - This includes pornography, obscene imagery, racially offensive imagery, imagery symbolic of themes which would cause offense, or images that contain inappropriate text.C ) You may not discuss, post items or links on religion, pornography, illegal drugs or the abuse of such drugs, game exploits, macros, or disallowed game practices as per the game rules. So probably borderline. If you want to push boundaries, don't be surprised if you catch a smack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just a general inquiry as to whether putting words like "Brothel" or "Bordello" in a deed name is against the Wurm T's & C's? Do you suspect "Whorehouse" would cause any issues? Since that is the literal meaning of brothel and bordello ? It might be ok since brothel/bordello have a slightly more upscale refined nuance. Or it might not. Maybe ask GMs in advance, though you are setting yourself up for a more likely "not ok" if you ask first (Establishment tends to be more conservative when forced to take a stance, since a "No" costs less controversy than a "Yes".) What specifically happens in WO if a name is offensive? Are you forced to pay a 5 silver rename fee? Or just made to pick a new name? Or is the deed disbanded and all money lost? How big of a risk is it? Since we can only guess here, I guess the potential risk is what would influence me.
