Yaknow it took me nearly 3 days to get unstuck in the tutorial and then I turned around to find a game master standing in frount of me saying my name wasnt ok.
So i went down a list of 4 or 5 names and none of them were acceptable in your world then I actually went so far as to make up letters just to get into the game
I was even told Kicka Tima wouldnt work ( a couple of words i thought I made up) and that was still rejected.

You guys dont really expect for such a strict namimg policy is going to work out in a world of millions of players?
I even tried something in my native language and the person didnt know what it meant but it wasnt original enuf...

Anyway sorry for being rude but I havent been put off by the initial crunch of learning a game since the days of fpsers .
Ill come back and play later maybe but Im going to delete my guys first i guess ill name my self

well, your name wasn't a RP appropriate name, so it was changed.

there is a naming policy in place, located here: http://hydlaa.com/smf/index.php?topic=29639.0

PS strives to be geared towards the Roll Play aspect of MMORPG, hence, we wish every character to have a roll play suitable name.  If you care to learn more about why it is the way it is, you are free to use the search feature f the forums and read over the many wonderful threads that have discussed that topic.  :)

Indeed, this is where you went wrong:

If you had just paid a little more attention, you could've saved yourself 3 days time ;)
Also, when you have created your name and continued to the "Paths" or "Custom" phase of character creation, the game asks you if you are *very* sure your name applies to the naming rules. It seems you clicked past that too.

Not PlaneShift's fault :)

But, alas, you are welcome to return when you feel you are finally ready to take this game on.
