I agree with the poster. I've run into the character that is being referred to and it's not only annoying but can cause rp gaffes. These can't be explained and by mature players will just be ignored, but we've all run into jerks that try to force people into explaining IC something that's obviously to everyone involved something that happened OOC and was in no one's realistic power to control.

As a compromise, I would suggest not allowing names to start with 'Self' only because people see this in a name and type it so quickly that they do not think about it. I don't think (many) people are picking names like this on purpose, but restricting this one combination of four letters will not leave people at a loss for acceptable names.

I know as Manden, whenever I was in the Inn I had people bowing, nodding, and giving things to Olin all the time because they would type in 'glare man' and end up glaring at Olin.
