Players name convention on 42servers

[Ostap]

Hi everyone
Here is some info about allowed player names on 42 servers.

I guess this was never really covered anywhere
Thus I'd like to pour some light on it

42amsterdam has strict rules about spamming and insulting other players
Rules are valid for forum as well for game servers.

Inside the game - player can select any name ...
Though there are some restrictions imposed:
Names that are offensive or match an offensive pattern - will be either fully or partially replaced.

Example:

Partial replacement:
"fuck trump" => "respect trump"
"fuck biden" => "respect biden"

Full replacement:
"eblan" => "I love justin bieber"
"ja eblan" => "I love justin bieber"
"on eblan" => "I love justin bieber"

Full replacement URL formated name:
"any.site.com" => "I Love Obama"
"visit our site.net" => "I Love Obama"




System that does this tracking is of coz not an AI and can make mistakes
like with Janusz ...where "anus" was detected
Even though system was correct literally and factually ... -
mistakes like that may happen with other nicknames ...
I'm monitoring every nick change - but if i miss one - plz let me know.

Note to Russian players

Obscenities in nick-name are not allowed (read above)
And this rule existed waaaay before you got one from your government last month.

I see some are trying to tweak the names with extra chars ... no worry i'll adjust the logic and you'll be back where you started

I remember this! It is active like for a couple years now.

In 2018, when I had all of those issues with bad syncs, once I changed my name to "Fuck Bad Syncs!" and when I entered the game it was changed to "Respect Bad Syncs!".

I find it to be a nice feature. But I won't respect Biden!

I see some are trying to tweak the names with extra chars ...

I did that too: --> F/U/C/K/ Bad Syncs!
Look at older logs from 2-3 years ago.

Anyway, I spotted some weeks ago, at stats page, some dudes from South Korea: one with "Obama/Bieber" replacement and the other one promoting a site with tweaked nick (but I don't remember the name/site).

This functionality is good to get rid of spammers. And now, if you say that most of those players who spam websites ingame are russians, I wonder if those korean dudes were using a proxy, instead...

And... I would switch their names to "I love PSY", when such dudes are located from Seoul...
