They even make famous people jokes in some of their own names--the cooking supplier in IF is named Emrul. Please.
If you ever get reported, they'll change your name and guildname. They don't go searching for it but they'll change a name if it refers to any type of media. It is sort of hypocritical, but it's the truth. I wish they'd be more adamant about it...I'm so tired of seeing Gimly and Gimlie and Legolazzz and Raistlinn, etc.
