Hmmm... I have 3 brothers which play Runescape, and I have give them stuff, recieved stuff, and played alongside them for over a year, and nothing bad has come of it... yet. I myself tend to follow the rules "to the letter", but I do agree completely with this article. However, I feel that using foreign language in names should be O.K - everywhere. I have had lots of trouble in the past thinking up names, so I reverted to what little German I knew. Thus: Hochheiligen (High holy / Sacred) Himmel Engel (Heaven/Sky Angel) Himmlischer (Heavenly) Klostermonch (Monastry Monk) I also have a new one called Liogris (no meaning I know). So - different languages bring diversity to Runescape. Plus, what happens when you run out of English names? Plus, if you don't like foreign names, how can you stand things like 0000100 or other names which are just collections of letters?
