People on both sides of the RP debate take things too far, and some people will never be satisfied with how the rules are enforced.

They're not being enforced to the extent written in that sticky, a fact that SSG have noted they are aware of. Until they actually have established RP rules which they are enforcing to the letter the OP's complaint is perfectly valid here and is not required to apologise as some have said.

As for me, I don't play on RP servers nor do I RP in general.

Here is a great post that deserves quoting

Brilliant quote, Amorey. Years ago, I used to be a religious RPer on Landroval, back when the server was a thriving RP environment. Back before there ever was a Laurelin. But now, I am on that other side of the fence - raider, PVPer. I have seen both sides. I know how vital RPing is to LOTRO. It is the very core of this community, really. I only wish that I had a chance to experience RP life on Laurelin during my RP years as I am definitely in agreement of enforcing lore-appropriate character names. Most definitely.

Millennials win again. Here is your trophy.

There has been a common general agreement: no to the obvious nonsense words used for names. Plenty of examples given before, but it is good to keep them visible: 'Ipawnyoulolz', 'Loredestroyer', 'Fishslapper'.

Even those that were transferring were in agreement about that - that this kind of names should be changed, just like it was before.
