Maybe, but when I was that age I was watching movies like Platoon where there is definitely a hefty dose of the term being used, lol.

One of my alts is the said character "Gook". I really had no idea that it was a derogatory slang word when I made the character. Later as Slyminx said they had told me about the meaning behind it, and at that point I did email Hunter to see if he could change the name. I had no intentions of offending anyone. As I stated I didnt know it had any type of racist meaning behind it. I really hope Hunter will change the character name for me, so I don't upset anyone with it. Just in case I did offend someone, I do apologize, and I also apologize to anyone in the future who might see it before it gets changed, or banned. Also I don't think I live under a rock, but I've never heard the word used other then to describe maybe a smudge, or glop of something. Also I've never seen Platoon, not a huge movie buff.

unless the he is an old Korean or Vietnam vet. i highly doubt this was purposely done to be derogatory. Most people under 30 don't even have a clue that it can be a racial slur.

Wow. Don't know who that is, but it's definitely unacceptable. Will be handled tonight.

I would like to post for the record, my comment was more out of humor, and that it should not reflect or presume any failure on the house of strix. he is a rogue element and not typical of there guild. There good people.

Thanks for pointing this out to us Trogdorr. We're in the process of suggesting to the guy who owns that toon to delete it at the first opportunity he gets.
Really, really poor moment of judgement that hopefully can be easily rectified.
Appologies to any folks who were offended by this.
Peace Strix

Just changing the last name should fix it? Bardcore Mutha_Fer? Personally I think the name is funny as hell but he should have been more creative with the f word to keep people for reporting it.

Funny? Yes. Appropriate? Not even close....no amount of "creativiity" makes the use of profanity in names on the server ok. I find your lack of good reasoning more offencive then the lack of good reasoning shown above.
