That's good to know... I guess "Zombie Tapicoa Lovefest 4000" is going to actually make it.

Fine with me as long as TK-757's band name fits.

Suh-weeeeeeet.

I posed this question a few weeks ago (along with wanting to know if there was an obscenity filter).

The band name I'd like to use has 31 characters, including spaces. So I should just barely be able to squeeze it in.

(That's what she said)

Are there restrictions on character types (read: are hyphen's allowed?).

So close, I can't have the name "The Antidisestablishmentarianisms", but I could just have "Antidisestablishmentarianisms".

Yes, there's an obscenity filter, I tried to put in my RL band name "Fisting Rita", and although the game let me have it, the game told me that no one online will see the band name until it is either cleaned up or renamed.

don't know for sure, but since you use the standard box pop up for entering text into the dashboard messaging system, I don't see why not.

I posted this in another thread, but since you have the game, you might know already...

Is there:

1) a limit to the number of avatars you can create?
2) a character limit on avatar names?
3) a limit to the number of groups you can create?

Wow... it's cool the obsecenity filter works in a way that works like that. Gives you the option to be nasty at home, without subjecting 12 year olds to it online.

Also, I'm curious about puncuation, too. That'd be great if someone would comment on that. :)

Very interesting. So "sluts" is permissible (IGN's Ignorant Sluts proves that).....but "fisting" is a no-no.

None of the names I was considering fall into the 'obscene' category, anyway, but I was curious.

So if I'm understanding correctly.....offline it's OK to have a 'dirty' band name......but online the names won't be displayed.

1) don't know but I've created several
2) same as band name length ( keep in mind that in solo, your char name is your band name )
3) don't know, only created two
