Mocking people for what they named their characters, RP or PVE-wise. No matter if it's straight up fanboying, non-lore compliant, or joke name. You don't know the history behind it. For a year? ish, the only way to change your name is if you server transferred with a 3 days' space in between. For some, that is just not doable (Raid for example). And then for some, they've been RPing with that non-lore compliant name for months that you just can't retcon their name into something that does comply with lore.
Though, I do have the right to raise a small questioning quircked eyebrow when your name is made to be political inciting (George Zimmerman, e.g) but I will never mock you.
Koporo Aporo was initially a Plainsfolk, and as such his name used Plainsfolk naming conventions.
When I used fantasia to retcon him into Jajara's clan as a Dunesfolk, I forgot that you couldn't change the name.
Now, poor Kopo has an incorrect name and everyone knows him BY THAT NAME and changing it would be a difficult process...
