"Names must not contain profanity."

I tried to create a new account to learn kindred with the summoner name "Wolf Among Lambs" and it said my name can't contain profanity? What?

Going to go out on a limb there and say "mong" being contained in there is the problem. That's always the risk when trying to catch all bad words in a simple word filter, there's a good chance you are banning completely normal words.

You can't use that one in a lot of places. It's just a thing.

Clearly it's the "Wolf" part that Riot can't accept

Try to use a nice name instead.

Reminds me of my days as the Silver K###ht in Dark Souls.

They won't let you have that one (I would have expected it to be taken by this point if were allowed) and yet there's a Silver 2 named **************(a string of derogatory terms for Asians) out there running through the jungle. I like the IFS, but I have no idea how basic stuff like this gets through - and survives being reported.

So, is there any chance IFS is just as stupid, stacking up hidden "bad behaviour" games without notifying you? Evelynn
